L-shaped structure on three storeys. Originally it was two separate buildings, comprising a larger three storey L-shaped structure to the south, with a smaller rectangular two-storey building to the north. Both were built between 1787 and 1827. An additional single storey structure was added to the north-west corner in the mid twentieth century. Brick built. The east and south façade of the building are rendered with a Neo-Georgian style stucco and have inserted bay windows. Slate roof with brick chimney. Modern shop front at ground floor. Inside - plaster frieze of early twentieth century date, woodwork panelling to main staircase also thought to be twentieth century, and woodwork panelling to two windows on first floor of probable Georgian date. It is unclear whether the buildings were originally residential or commercial, but in 1886 the L-shaped building was acquired by Messrs. GH and JR Hogg and converted into an extensive shop to be known as Howard Stores. By 1923 business was thriving (a new shop was opened in Newcastle) and it likely that the stucco façade was added around this time, along with the bay windows and internal detail. The 1856 date on the finial on the south façade relates to the original founding of the Howard Stores on different premises.

Two three-storey brick structures of early nineteenth century date, sitting on stone basement walls which along with the stone southern party-wall with No. 70, are possibly of earlier (medieval) date. The interior of the buildings have been stripped, although some historic structures and fittings remain. Externally, although of simple form, and in very poor condition, the buildings represent a pleasantly restrained Georgian architecture and fit easily with the earlier Market Lane Hotel to the south. The properties are shown on Oliver's plan of 1830 as number 13 and on Ordnance Survey first edition 1:500 with a roofed passage between 64 and 68 which turned into Lloyd's Court. The buildings were commercial. Census returns show the occupants of Nos. 60 to 70 as grocers, chemists, booksellers, furniture dealers, fishmongers, musical instrument seller, cabinet maker and various other trades. No. 68 was the auction house of Messrs Easton and Bell from 1910 to 1935, and their salesrooms ran south through the back parts of No. 70.

During a geophysical survey in 2000, five lithic artefacts were recovered. These were cores, probably of Neolithic origin.

Greenwood's map of 1828 shows a brick yard on the Fawdon Wagonway (HER 1078) just south of Fawdon B Pit. Geophysical survey to the immediate south of the brick yard in 1999 identified anomalies which may indicate the presence of brick foundations.

Fieldwalking of the southern part of this field produced a significant amount of flints. The raw material was largely local boulder clay flint of poor nodular quality. Low percentage of debitage. Few tools in proportion to the number of cores. One flint was burnt. Mixture of late Mesolithic and Neolithic tools. Two trenches were excavated across the areas with high concentrations of flints (false crest). However no features of archaeological interest were found in the trenches.

St. Ann's Mill is shown on Wood's plan of 1827. There are buildings on the site on Ordnance Survey first edition, but they are unnamed.
