Hanover Street, warehouses

The buildings of Hanover Street, and the street itself, survive as records of the importance of industry in nineteenth-century Newcastle. The bonded warehouses off the street date to 1841-1844 and are evidence of the significance of Newcastle as an industrial centre. Most of the buildings are of brick and stone. The unlisted buildings on the north side of the street were constructed for Robert Stephenson & Company, and thus are connected with one of Newcastle’s great industrialists. There are listed buildings on either side of the street (coppersmith's shop on north side HER 9252 and bonded warehouses on south side HER 5168). LOCAL LIST
