In 1794 the Cordwainers Company built their stone-fronted hall on the north side of High Bridge.

Built in 1766 for the Rev. James Murray, an independent preacher. In 1785 it was admitted into the Presbyterian Church. The chapel could seat 604 people. On 28 May 1881 the Newcastle Courant reported that workmen employed by Mr J. Stevenson in removing an old building near the soup kitchen in the High Bridge, discovered the remains of two groined arches and several parts of a richly ornamented gothic window. They were supposed to have formed part of a chapel [presumably the High Bridge Chapel?]. Thomas Oliver (1844) reported that in 1786 the church was united with the Church of Scotland Presbytery. The chapel measured 39 feet 2 inches x 43 feet 7 inches. The entrance door lead to two staircases of 20 steps to the gallery. The pulpit on the north wall was elevated on 10 steps and the clerk's desk on 7 steps. The gallery was supported by five columns. Total sittings 585. The vestry was at the west door.

In 1892 during excavations in Pudding Chare, a medieval green glazed earthenware ewer-shaped vessel with a handle (13.5 inches high, 4.75 inches in diameter at mouth and 6.75 inches at the base) was found. It was embedded in 10 feetof solid clay on the north-east side of Pudding Chare, surrounded by oak stakes 6 inches apart, which appear to have been there to protect it. It was said to be a vessel of Norman or transitional period. The remains of a brick lined well were found in the same vicinity. Matthew Mackey Jr donated the vessel to the Society of Antiquaries in 1892.

Beyond the Newe-water (HER 6522) at the end of the Cloth Market was the Cordiner's Meeting House, north of St Nicholas Church.

Towards the end of the Cloth Market was a large cross with a lead cistern at the top of it to hold water. It was called the Newe-water and was pulled down in around 1733.

Two medieval grave covers were found while a property in Collingwood Street was being pulled down in 1899. One was 20 inches long, 9 inches wide at the top and 8" wide at the bottom. A relief of a floreated cross, with the stem of a sword and buckler on one side, and a square on the other. The other was a gable cross, 18 inches across the arms, with a lamb in high relief in the centre. A letter from Messrs. Oliver and Leeson says that one is a grave cross of the late 13th century and one is an east gable cross of Early English work. Could these be from the early church of St. Nicholas?

Two carved stones of medieval date were found at the back of Collingwood Street in 1899 and donated to the Society of Antiquaries by Mr. W.J. Sanderson of Gosforth.

According to Bourne (1736) a little below the Hall of the Taylors (HER 6518) was probably the house of Laurentius Acton, which was next door to the house of Thomas Waters. Acton was Mayor of Newcastle in 1433, and 1435-1437 in the reign of Henry VI. The wheat and rye market lay opposite Acton's house.

Bourne (1736) reports that the Taylor's Meeting House was at the end of the Chare, fronting onto Pilgrim Street. A large window, which seemed to be part of a chapel, survived. He quotes on the play and possession of Corpus Christi, conditions of entry into the Taylor's guild and livery etc.

In the medieval period there was a Pilgrim's Inn in Pilgrim Street, where pilgrims who came to visit St Mary's Chapel in Jesmond stayed. Bourne (1736) reports that the inn was on the west side of the street adjoining the north side of the House of Edward Collingwood, 116 yards from the southernmost corner of Upper Dean Bridge. The inn was holden of the Dean and Chapter of Durham, and belonged at that time to Mr James Hargrave. During the reign of Henry VIII the inn was known as St. Cuthbert's Inn. It was demolished c.1777 and thick ancient walls were discovered.
