Designed by Ryder and Yates 1972. For pharmaceutical company Sterling Organics. Comprises three buildings providing a main entrance to the industrial complex, offices and a restaurant linked by covered walkways. There was a courtyard garden behind a façade wall. Glazed panels enclosed the internal garden, which were painted different shades of green. The external walls were clad in modular pre-cast concrete panels using white quartz aggregate. Each wall had a single bull's eye window with a tear duct from sill to the ground to allow water to run off. The façade of the open plan office was all glass with glass ribs. The directors' offices had Pittsburgh solar reflective glass windows. The reception area was clad in brick and lit by a curved roof light. The interview room had a curved roof light of mirror glass with spot lights behind. The entrance had a huge cantilevered canopy with a slender open pylon. Inside there was a mural by Peter Yates showing the molecular structure of paracetamol. The conference room off the reception has mirror glazing which repeated the pattern. The buildings were air-conditioned. The plant on the roof was sculptural. The significance of the asset lies in its surviving architectural details as an example of modernist architecture by an influential local practice. It has group value with the other Ryder and Yates buildings in Killingworth.

Disused ship testing tank once water-filled and used for experimental research. Now overgrown with rushes and reeds.

Opened 25th July 1915. Designed by the same architect as the Park Hotel. Built to replace the original nineteenth century station (HER 2156) when the North Eastern Railway, Newcastle, Tynemouth and Newcastle Line (HER 2155) was realigned to the west. Built to cater for increased passenger numbers and the revised Avenue branch line to Colywell Bay (now Seaton Sluice). The architect was William Bell, chief NER architect. The large iron and glass canopy over the west platform has been demolished and the covered ramped footbridge which crossed the tracks and led to the south platform. Now the metro station.

Brick-built soldiers quarters as shown on OS second edition. The principal surviving building from the second military period of Clifford's Fort. Purpose-built structure for the Tyne Division Royal Engineers (Volunteers) Submarine Miners built between 1893 and 1896. It housed the accommodation and canteen facilities for the unmarried soldiers. It was built partially over the demolished keep. It is a two-storey building, built in machine-made red brick with white brick banding and lintels and sandstone sills. The roof is of Welsh slate with lead-roll ridges. It has cast iron rainwater goods and three shaped chimneys with white ceramic pots. Many original horned timber sash windows survive. This building is now occupied by Southern Electronics.

Stone building near to old lifeboat station (HER 1982) in 1864. Two arched doorways both with double doors. Shown as a boat house on OS second edition. Known locally as 'The Morgue' because it was said to been used to hold the bodies of those who had been drowned. Now used as a boat house. Tynemouth Rowing Club was formed in 1867. The clubhouse was improved in 2000 with a bar and social area, with toilets and showers facilities. The boat house has a small gym which includes 4 rowing machines.

Tall brick chimney at West Chirton Industrial Estate. With 'TESCO' painted on it. This was part of a Ministry of Supply factory during the Second World War. It is a well-known landmark for the many Coast Road users.

Iconic landmarks on the River Tyne. The cranes are important features of the area. They form part of the landscape of Wallsend and represent the ship building industries of the area. Unfortunately, the cranes have been sold and removed from the site.

The workshops were built in two phases with the South East facing stone built single storey block being the earlier. The workshops contained the stores, blacksmiths, plumbers, fitters and joiner's shop and contained a number of fire places and an internal tubway and probably dated from the sinking of the colliery. The rear extension to the building dated from the period 1899-1922, as did the majority of the buildings which formed the colliery site until the late 1980s. The colliery closed in 1985. The workshops were restored as units by the Tyne and Wear Building Preservation Trust in 1991 {1}. The workshops (Buttress House, Brenkley Way, Blezard Business Park) are now occupied by Mental Health Concern.

Designed by Ryder and Yates. Headquarters for the Northern Gas Board (a committee of local businessmen and experts who oversaw the running of the gas industry in the north). Built 1965. represented the high point of the practice's output. Won a series of architectural awards - RIBA Architecture Award 1966, Concrete Society Commendation 1968, Civic Trust Award 1968. The offices were located on two floors around a central courtyard. The lower floor was raised on columns above the ground. The offices were divided internally by demountable partitions which allowed for a flexible space. Ryder and Yates later regretted not patenting this design. Only the boardroom and toilets had fixed walls. Lighting was provided by fluorescent tubes set in modular bays. Telephone and electrical points were set in the floor. There was a small private auditorium for lectures and seminars. The main stair, desk and foundation stone in the reception were sculptural. A single storey block provided a restaurant and caretaker's flat, linked to the main building by a glazed walkway. The rooflight was made of fibreglass in the shape of the Minoan horns of Knossos, Crete. There was a pyramid at the entrance to the site which housed a giant gas meter. Each face was a different colour. There was a cascade in a green glass cylinder flowing into a pool, to cool the air-conditioning system. The use of the curtain wall system (glazing and vitreous steel panels in aluminium frames) for the upper floors was one of the first in the North. In-between the curtain wall panels are dark grey steel fire-stop panels. Norgas House has full air-conditioning in the main block, warm-air heating in the restaurant block and under-slab heating to the external concrete entrance court to prevent ice forming in winter. The boiler house was set within glass walls. The service towers on the roof were sculptural. Peter Yates likened Norgas House to 'a jellyfish capable of extending down and out in all direction and as hurriedly contracting'. In 1967 the open ground floor was enclosed to accommodate more staff. A computer centre was added in 1974. This won a Financial Times Award in 1975. The building was totally refurbished in the early 1990s and the Minoan horns, boardroom and stairs were removed. For this reason, the building has not been listed. It was then occupied by Transco. Demolished in 2013.

1969 by Ryder and Yates, famous North-East architects, for the Northern Gas Pension Fund. Building has been overclad with profiled sheeting which has hidden the crispness of the original design. Three bands of concrete cantilevered from hidden piers. Bands of windows deeply recessed. This building echoes Norgas House. The building was put forward for listing in 2011 but was not added to the list. English Heritage's Advice Report states that Ryder and Yates were committed to the modernist ethos and were influenced by Le Corbusier and Lubetkin. Their work is considered to be outstanding and innovative. Stephenson House demonstrates Le Corbusier influences. It is a straight forward but elegant design. It has broad horizontal bands of walling alternating with narrow bands of windows. The materials were chosen to react slowly to temperature change and windows reduced to minimum size to reduce the impact of solar gain. Formerly exposed concrete surfaces have later been clad with profiled sheeting which hides the crispness of the original design. The building lacks many of the sculptural features of Norgas House and the Engineering Research Station building. The only feature of note is the sculptural vents on the south elevation. The spatial complexity of Stephenson House is special. The building was designed around an open inner courtyard containing a blue mosaic pool, bridged by a ramp. Access was originally gained to the interior via four staircases and the ramp. These elements have been altered and the way in which the building is accessed has been re-modelled. The upper floor office space at Stephenson House might have been designed to be flexible by the use of innovative moveable partitions but these have been lost and the space is now open plan.
