Newcastle town wall, curtain north of Morden Tower

This stretch stands to the wall walk, with most of the parapet surviving, some of it beneath later walling over blocked embrasures. Two external base chamfers step down north of Morden Tower and disappear. The original face, on both sides, is of large well-dressed masonry, but there has been much patching at different times on the inside, and there is one prominent vertical joint. There are the remains of two turrets. SCHEDULED ANCIENT MONUMENT AND LISTED GRADE 1
