Newcastle is a geographic parish in Northumberland County, New Brunswick, Canada.[4]
For governance purposes it is divided between the city of Miramichi[5] and the Greater Miramichi rural district,[6] with small border areas belonging to the incorporated rural communities of Alnwick (Bartibog area) and Miramichi River Valley (Chaplin Island Road),[5] all of which are members of the Greater Miramichi Regional Service Commission,[7] and the Eel Ground 2 and Metepenagiag Uta'nk Indian reserves, which are not part of the RSC.
Prior to the 2023 governance reform, the parish was divided between Miramichi,[8] the Indian reserves, and the local service districts of Lower Newcastle-Russellville and the parish of Newcastle.[9]
