Description
Farnacres in the Team Valley, passed to the Liddells of Ravensworth in 1671. In the eighteenth century it was the home of Nicholas Watson (d.1795), their bailiff. Nineteenth and twentieth century tenants were Rev. RH Williamson, John Barras (brewer), Mark Archer (Dunston engineer) and FW Bernard, the "Low Fell Giant", the last occupant. It was a long house with a sweeping verandah. It had a "museum" of stuffed birds, rocks and minerals. Described in 1932 as "a pleasant ivy-covered house or hall, which stands in the midst of a well-kept lawn". From the 1930s the Team Valley Trading Estate encroached more and more, and Farnacres was demolished in the 1960s.

Described in 1932 as "a pleasant ivy-covered house or hall, which stands in the midst of a well-kept lawn". The house was said to be a curious mixture of ancient and modern, the ivy-covered and roof-slated front portion with thick stone walls of nineteenth century date, and the rear part with tiled roof of pre-Reformation date. In the older part of the house were several old fireplaces, curious-shaped rooms and passages. There was a stair tower. The ground floor was flagged with stone. From the 1930s the Team Valley Trading Estate encroached more and more, and Farnacres was demolished in the 1960s.
