He was Mayor of Newcastle seven times and in 1903 had one of the mayoral barges placed in the garden of his house. In the 1930s the house was used as a children's home. After the Second World War it became St. Anne's Convent High School. This closed in 1983. A Marie Curie Centre now occupies the site.
