The historian John Brand identified earthworks in the Warden's Close as relics of the Civil War siege, these are probably the linear features on Thompson's plan of 1746 and can be equated with the "complex series of ditches and ponds" destroyed without being adequately examined or recorded in the course of forming the Bath Lane car park in 1987. Following the Civil War the town wall ditch had been leased to a James Turner, who was unable to make any profit from the land because of the "trenches". By 1676 the dikes between Newgate and Warden's Close were in the hands of a Andrew Hairoppe and subsequently passed to Christopher Barker, tanner in 1695. In 1730 the open areas were occupied as gardens by a Mrs Barker and a Mr Robinson. By 1734 John Clayton, merchant, had bought Barker's right in the ground. On his death the lease passed to his brother Snow Clayton. The dikes were cultivated albeit unsuccessfully. In 1792 John Soulsby assigned part of the Dykes for construction of a Poor House, but the scheme was abandoned.

Two plans of Newcastle were prepared by Jacob Astley in 1638/9, prompted by the need to refortify the town as war with Scotland threatened. The northern and western parts of the town suffered damge during the Civil War seige of 1644, during which St. Andrew's Church (HER 1486) and the town wall was bombarded by a Scottish artillery battery under Lt. General Baillie sited somewhere near the Leazes. The town wall between Newgate and Andrew Tower was breached and the church itself was still under repair in 1708. A cannonball supposedly found embedded in the wall of the Morden Tower was formerly displayed there. Grey states that the suburbs out of Newgate and Pilgrim Street were "ruinated in these late Warres".

Shown on 2nd edition Ordnance Survey map. Recently offices for Newcastle General Hospital. Recorded ahead of demolition in 2009 by ARS. The building was constructed between 1854 and 1893 and was originally two semi-detatched villa style houses. It was constructed with narrow lime jointed bricks of white clay with sandstone quoins and mouldings. The roofing was of slate tiles and white brick chimney. A north west block was added in 1906 and the buildings were amalgamated c.1951. A survey of the interior revealed that the layout and style of the majority of rooms had changed significantly probably in the 1950s. The only original features were the windows and in some rooms, ornate ceiling coving.

Shown on Ordnance Survey second edition map. Bowland Lodge is now [2004] used as a residential care home, consisting of what was originally two substantial late 19th century semi-detached houses. A large modern extension has been added. The original rear wings of the property have been altered with piecemeal alterations and additions. The main body of the property is unaltered from that depicted on a plan of 1885, which shows the proposed large additional side-wings which were added to the houses. There was a stable block to the rear. The original outbuildings have been demolished - only the eastern gable wall of a former outside toilet survives. The original low retaining wall around the edge of the terrace survives on the eastern side of the building surmounted by decorative cast-iron railings. The original garden wall survives on the east and western sides. There is decorative stonework incorporated into the western entrance to the property.
