    Upper Newcastle occupies a gradual ascent commanding a fine view of the sea, which bounds an intervening prospect of rural scenery, the effect of which is much increased by the ruins of the old castle and the simple and neat modern edifice of the parish church. Fairs were held on April 1st July 10th September 1st and December 6th. There is a coastguard station at Five Mile belonging to the district of Glyn.
