Prayer Times in Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom
Prayer times in Newcastle upon Tyne are worked out each day from the city's coordinates (54.97°N). We use the Muslim World League method, the one followed across the United Kingdom. The five times shift by a minute or two each day as the sun moves. The full month is listed below.

How Newcastle upon Tyne's prayer times are worked out
From Newcastle upon Tyne, the Qibla is 120° from true north. Face southeast to pray toward the Kaaba. It lies 5,071 km (3,151 miles) away in a straight line across the globe. Every time on this page is worked out from Newcastle upon Tyne's own coordinates (54.97°N, 1.61°W), not a national average. That is why Newcastle upon Tyne's times and its Qibla differ a little from cities a short distance away.
One local quirk shapes the Newcastle upon Tyne timetable: midday prayer does not land at 12:00. Newcastle upon Tyne lies well west inside its London time zone. So the sun peaks about 15 minutes after clock noon. Dhuhr follows the sun, not the clock — today it falls at 1:12 PM. Across the year, the fast here runs from about 18h 19m near June down to 9h 28m in December.
The Fajr and Isha angles for Newcastle upon Tyne come from the Muslim World League. The Muslim World League method sets Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon, and Isha at 17°. Use ISNA's 15° instead and Fajr here would move by several minutes. So the method — not the coordinates alone — settles the final time. We also publish times for nearby Gateshead, Washington and South Shields. Each is only a few minutes off Newcastle upon Tyne's clock.

Two Asr times are in use in the United Kingdom
UK mosques are split. Deobandi and Barelvi mosques, the majority, follow the Hanafi Asr. Arab, Salafi and African mosques use the earlier standard time. Many UK timetables print both. The time shown above for Newcastle upon Tyne is the standard reckoning — 5:14 PM. The Hanafi time today is 6:19 PM. Follow whichever your mosque announces; you can make Hanafi the default in the settings above.
Who sets prayer times in the UK
There is no national authority: every British mosque sets its own timetable. In London most of the major mosques follow the Unified Prayer Timetable for London. They agreed it among themselves and adopted it from Ramadan 2011. Users include the Islamic Cultural Centre and London Central Mosque, the East London Mosque and Muslim Welfare House. Outside London, mosques generally use Muslim World League angles (Fajr 18°, Isha 17°), the basis this page applies. This is why two mosques a few miles apart can print different times. It is worth checking your own mosque's timetable, rather than assuming a single national answer exists.
The Asr split in British mosques
Britain's Asr time depends on which mosque you attend, and the split is real. The most recent mosque census counted nearly 2,000 active British masjids. Deobandi and Barelvi mosques are both Hanafi, and together around two thirds of that total. They call Asr on the second-shadow rule. Arab, Salafi, Somali and West African mosques use the earlier standard time. Many British timetables print both columns for exactly this reason, and so does this page. Three landmarks stand out. London Central Mosque in Regent's Park was designed by Sir Frederick Gibberd and completed in 1977. The East London Mosque in Whitechapel opened its current building in 1985, and was among the first in Britain permitted to broadcast the adhan aloud. Birmingham Central Mosque was built in 1969.
