Description
This group of terraced houses was built 1907-1912 and as a group is unique in Newcastle. The houses are examples of the ‘Arts and Crafts’ style, and for the most part are externally unaltered. Eslington Terrace consists of two blocks of six terraced red brick houses. Each house has a bay window with a crenellated tower at first floor level. On the north side of Kingsland Terrace, copper plating with embossed fleur-de-lys motifs is found between the bay windows of the ground and first floors. Assorted chimney stacks and wrought iron gates are found throughout the group and several houses on Haldane Terrace have surviving sash windows. The chimneys are a design feature on the end houses of each street.
