Boundary stones shown on the 1864 First Edition Ordnance Survey Plan. These are marked B.S (boundary stone) along the historic parish boundary. The stones were installed following the removal of the hedgerow/boundary feature itself when the park lands were laid out. The historic boundary also angles at what was evidently an ancient thorn tree growing upon the boundary line.

Description
A good example of a purpose-built 1930s public swimming baths. The pool was opened in June 1936 at a cost of £31,000. It was designed by J.E.Lewis and built by Henderson Brothers. The building was recorded ahead of demolition in 2011. It was refused for listing. The exterior was largely unaltered although the interior had undergone frequent and dramatic changes with very few original features surviving. Interior original features recorded included enamel glazed bricks and indented handholds around its edge.

Extension to rear, part one storey, part three storeys. The back yard walls exist intermittently. Inside there are cornices and a ceiling rose.
Early 19th century terrace of townhouses. Nos. 25 and 26 (HER 9151, listed grade 2) were the first to be built and set the building line for the rest of the street. No. 21 was a splendid townhouse set in a large impressive garden, which was originally the gable end of the terrace in 1800. By 1900 the garden of No. 21 had been built upon with numbers 17 to 19. Newcastle University bought the terrace for use as offices for the Institutue of Health and Society in 1964 by which time the terrace was neglected. The interiors of the houses were knocked through. The Wolfson Building was built in the front gardens. In 2014 the terrace is being converted into student accomodation. No. 24 has a buff brick front elevation with sandstone ashlar dressings to the ground floor bay window. Mansard roof. Sash windows. At the rear is a two storey commercial brick extension with flat roof. No. 23 is also buff brick with a projecting bay window. Added rendered attic storey. Sash windows. At the rear is a small brick two storey extension. Inside there are cornices and stained glass to the landing window. Nos. 21 and 22 appear to have been one property in the past, due to architectural styling and the internal layout with evidence of a central staircase. Three storeys. The front elevation is red brick with two storey bay windows, with ashlar transoms and mullions. Stone detailing includes entablature and overlights to the front door. Sash windows. The rear is red brick. Inside No. 21 there is elaborate panelling and fretwork in the hall, cornicing, architraves and window reveals, fireplaces and a lantern cupola. No. 20 is buff brick with ashlar dressings. Three storeys with attic and basement. Three storey bay window. Three storey extension at the rear. Inside cornices survive. It is thought that Nos. 21 and 22 was a doctor's house and No. 20 his surgery.

There has been an inn on this site from the mid-late 19th century with the development of Carr Hill Road. The pub served the employees of the local pottery industry. In the 1920s a large council estate was built. The public house was refurbished and altered to serve its new community. A 1926 lintel stone on the entrance door marks this change. Large structural openings were created to give a more open plan layout and several rear extenstion provided sanitary accomodation. After the closure of the pub the building lay derelict for a number of years. It was recorded in 2011 ahead of proposals for its conversion into residential accomodation.
