- Source: Sheriff of Newcastle upon Tyne
The office of Sheriff of Newcastle upon Tyne existed from 1400 (1400) until local government reorganisation in 1974 (1974), and was reintroduced in 1996 (1996) as a title held additionally by the Deputy Lord Mayor of Newcastle upon Tyne. The city has a sheriff because it was historically a county corporate.
In 1950 Violet Grantham became the first woman to hold the office (becoming the first female Lord Mayor two years later), and in 2019 Councillor Habib Rahman became the first BAME person to hold the office.
William Haswell Stephenson, who held the office in 1886, commissioned a bronze statue of Queen Victoria by Alfred Gilbert to celebrate 500 years of the shrievalty; it stands in the city centre and is Grade II* listed.
