Photographic recording of the north wall of the rear of 64 Front Street - backing onto North Road. The tall boundary wall consists of un-coursed ragwork masonry in local yeallow and grey limestone with inclusions of large, tooled sandstone blocks - presumably re-used. At the centre of the wall a previous entrance has been blocked in red brickwork of probable late 19th/early 20th century date. A brick buttress of the same date has been added to the centre extending the full height of the wall. Modern openings have pierced the wall to the east and west of this part of the structure.

School shown on the Second Edition Ordnance Survey plan, 1897. School appears to have used an earlier building shown on the 1857 plan. Expanded or rebuilt by 1919. Labelled as Galen Terrace Primary School by 1955. Demolished late 1980s.

Three storey house, now 2 shops (Happy Travel and Bubble T Break in 2015). Slate roof with rooflights. Sash windows. Grace McCombie notes that the insurance plans show the building in yellow, which usually means theres a timber frame. The house has much lower floor-to-ceiling heights than its neighbours.

A World War Two bomb was found during dredging operations in the River Tyne near Swan Hunter Shipyard on Tuesday 1st December 2015. On 2nd December there was a controlled explosion by the Royal Navy on Longsands Beach at Tynemouth. German bombers would often release their remaining bombs whilst circling over Whitley Bay, Cullercoats and Tynemouth after attacking the shipyards at Blyth and on the Tyne. Whitley Bay was bombed on 29 August 1940. The church on Whitley Road was destroyed. The recreation club, bowling green and two houses in Cheviot View were directly hit. One of the worst air raids in Whitley Bay was when the aircraft carrier HMS Victorious came down the Tyne having been built at Wallsend. The Germans' parachute bombs on 16 April 1941 hit houses in Charles Avenue, Ocean View and Oxford Street. On another occasion Swinburne Gardens was hit. Another bomb was dropped on 14th December 1942 on Coquet Street. In Feb 2015 a WW2 bomb was caught in a net by a trawler (the Ticino) 3 miles off South Shields. The shell contained 286lbs/130kg of explosives. It was exploded by bomb disposal 18 miles out to sea.

An area of Newcastle upon Tyne in the Wingrove ward, north of Westgate Road, south of Studley Terrace and east of Newcastle General Hospital. Located on a hill overlooking the city. Isaac Cookson developed an estate opposite Westgate Hill Cemetery in 1826. It was named after his first son Arthur. The first streets were named after his other sons John, Edward and William. These original streets have all gone now (replaced by blocks of flats). However the rest of the streets of terraced houses, built by the second edition OS map of 1890, still survive. The westernmost street is Gainsborough Grove. The easternmost streets are Beaconsfield Street and Prospect Place. The terraces are brick, two storeys plus attics with dormer windows. Slate roofs. Brick chimneys. Sandstone quoins. The designs of individual streets differ however, presumably because they were built by different builders. Some, like Gainsborough and Brighton Groves have bay windows. Sidney Grove and Studley House and Oxley House on Studley Terrace have decorative sandstone lintels over the ground floor windows. Studley House has a grand corner turret. Some houses have porches. Some have inserted shopfronts. Some are Tyneside flats rather than houses. Stanhope Street is the commercial street with many shops and restaurants.

Circular marks visible on 2014 Google Earth Image. Possible late Bronze Age - Romano-British in date.

High Farm shown on First Edition Ordnance Survey Plan, 1858 and also a Map of Backworth Estate c.1820. Mid 19th century farmstead with later additions and alterations. Building One is a small gabled shed now used as a workshop. Built of roughly coursed squared sandstone with dressed gable copings and an asbestos sheet roof. Double door in south face. Building Two is of two storeys, built of sandstone with dressed quoins and gable copings supported on simple kneelers, slate roof. Central door and two windows on west face. Modern door in south face. Inside the upper floor has been removed. The building was a stable for six horses with a hayloft above. Building Three is a former cottage for farm workers. Interior not examined as it is still occupied. Building Four is a low slate-roofed building with large quoins. Building Five is of two phases, the west end is of squared snecked sandstone masonry and the east end in cement-rendered brick. Both sections have chimneys. Slate roof. The older west end has a door and window in the south face. The east extension has doors to the north and south and a window in the west face. This building is thought to have been used as a dairy and for washing milk churns. Building Six is the farmhouse, still in occupation. Interior not recorded. Two storeys, stone, slate roof. All the glazing is modern. Building Seven is a modern shed of 1950s date. The OS first edition map of 1857 suggests that the buildings surrounded a stock yard where cattle would have been penned. The buildings on the north and west sides probably housed hemmels or animal sheds. The south range was a cart shed with granary above. The threshing barn was at the north-west corner with a gin-gang on its north side to provide horsepower for the thresher. The east side of the yard was formed by a stable (building 2). The farmhouse (building 1) and its outbuilding (building 4) was at the south-west. At the east was the workers cottage, coal shed and toilet. By 1897 the north range including building 1 had been added and a row of piggeries. In the 20th century the dairy building 5 was built. The stackyard was later used for a range of short-lived structures including a rough Dutch barn.

Primary school built by Durham County Council and opened in 1912 by Councillor W J Aunger. It comprised three departments, boys, girls and a separate infant department. The building design represents the three sections. By 1929, the school was rearranged into senior mixed, junior mixed and infant mixed. In 1967, the senior department moved to their own location at Hetton and the junior and infant sections amalgamated to become a primary school. The building was recorded in 2008 by ARS ahead of demolition. Very little of the original building had been changed other than the fenestration and small extensions to the west and south elevations. It was a brick single storey buildings with slate tiled roof.

Brass and Copper Works shown on the Fourth Edition Ordnance Survey Plan, 1937. Now demolished.
