The farm is shown on Ordnance Survey first edition. Site now occupied by Down Hill Nursery School. The house was stone-built. Paths led from the farm to the fields on the Leas, where field boundary and ridge and furrow earthworks are still visible (HER 887). The fields were used for grazing and potatoes.

Shown on Ordnance Survey first edition as a house with its own drive and parkland and lodge to the south west. There is a photograph of the cottage in "A Picture of Old Marsden" 1991. The site of the house is visible as slight earthworks. Home of T. Forest, shipowner.

The National Trust information board states "This bay gets its name from a French ship which once floundered here. At one time accessible by wooden stairs, the bay was populated with smugglers… the strange object sticking out of the water up the coast [a little north of Frenchman's Bay] is all that remains of a dock gate. It was being towed from the Tyne to the Thames on 19th October 1919 when it went aground and all efforts to salvage it failed".

A timber and iron bolted ramp can be observed between the Groyne and South Pier. The timbers are the size of railway sleepers. This was a World War One flying boat (seaplane) ramp used to aid planes out of the sea onto a parking area below the Lawe top. Formal possession of the land was sought from the Director of Works to the Admiralty under the powers of the Defence of the Realm (Consolidated) Regulations, 1914. The request included the construction of a Royal Naval Seaplane Station. Concern was raised by the Member for the Borough, Mr C.A. Cochrane, regarding these powers under which, if the Seaplane Station was to be permanent, the public would be deprived of the recreation and enjoyment of the sands, and no amount of loss which they could prove could adequately compensate South Shields for being deprived of its use. South Shields was a Seaplane Station, Repair Depot and Acceptance Depot during World War One. It had a sub-station at Tees Bay/Seaton Carew. The station occupied 21 acres and included five Type F seaplane sheds each 200 x 100 feet. The station was active from April 1916 until 1919. It was probably attached to the No. 10 Kite Balloon Base. Noted as buried under sand but still over 1m high in places during a 2013 watching brief at Little Haven.

Prior to its extension in 1868 the churchyard was roughly rectangular, with the church set close to the centre of the north side. The 1868 extension was to the north of the church. The oldest monuments lie on the south side of the church - mostly19th century headstones and tombstones, but a few 18th century stones, some broken or badly decayed. In the eastern half of the 1868 extension there are late19th century and 20th century gravestones. The western side is as yet unused and ridge and furrow earthworks survive here.

Shown on 2nd edition Ordnance Survey map. There is some confusion as to the number and denomination of chapels at Marsden. An old photograph shows a brick building identified as a Primitive Methodist Chapel of 1834 and this seems likely to be the structure shown as a chapel (and then a Sunday School) on the 2nd edition and later Ordnance Survey maps at NZ 4076 6421 in the centre of Marsden village (cleared way in the 1970s). However, the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map shows no buildings at all here, and the photograph shows a building with a datestone which could read ‘1884’, the building itself being more in the style of the 1880s than the 1830s. Whellans’ 1894 directory identified a brick Wesleyan Chapel seating 200 being built in 1884 at Whitburn Colliery, which was only c 500m to the south – but the old photograph clearly shows the inscription ’P M CHAPEL’.
