18th century culvert associated with a gently ramped earthwork marking the vista from the Statue of Liberty column..

This meadow was the location of a C16 iron working site. In 1545 Richard Hodgson of Byermoor had a furnace built in the freehold dividing West and East Gibside. Roger Blakiston provided rammel (loppings from the woods). A deed of the 1520s refers to '500 oakes sould by Roger Merlay' at the time of the inception of the furnace. Hodgson's ironmill and furnace at Gibside had rights to the ore from the entire Blakistion domain. By 1553 Roger Blakiston and Richard Hodgson were able to buy out two partners, one of them being Roger's father, William. They owned between them a 'full thrid pte of all the said yrne mynes and yrne mylne'. As well as providing the ore and charcoal for founding, the Blakistons provided coal for forging. They co-opted a metallurgist to exploit their resources on the spot. By 1550 they had an integrated industry. The forge of the 1550s may have been abandoned by the end of the 16th century. In 1608 William Blakiston gave leave to Edward Talbot to build a forge and furnace in the Mylne Field and to make watercourses 'to and fro the said forges and furnisses'. The water supply may have come from the Leapmill Burn. The forge is shown on a plan of 1633 700 yards NE of the burn's junction with the Derwent. Edward Talbot was the brother of the ironmaster 7th Earl of Shrewsbury. In the 1630s the number of smiths doubled at Gibside, indicating an expanson of ironmaking. By the 1680s numbers of smiths had tripled. Swedish imports were used to supplement and improve local stock. This was the period of Baltic 'Eastland' trade. Despite this growth, iron remained the least dynamic Tyne industry - most energy went into ships and coal. The Blakistons eventually abandoned iron for coal.George Bowes established river walls or 'keys' to reduce flooding. A drive crossed the haugh through gates at each end, probably constructed around 1790 to 1820. As the western entrance became more important in the 19th century as a route to the railway, a lodge was built at the entrance to the haugh and ramping provided to reduce the slope.

Estates in the 18th century tried to be as self-sufficient as possible, and for this reason a brick kiln was built in the centre of the Gibside estate in the area now known as the Brick Kiln Field. In this field are the remains of the pond where the clay was extracted. The Brick Kiln Field is shown on Fryer's map of 1803. Shown on the 1767 Estate Map as Longlands. The hollow area on the northern side of the field is the old brick pit and a long mound and spread of brick debris on the eastern side of the pit suggest the location of the kiln. There are many references to the operation of the brick kiln in the 18th century accounts.

Victorian Drill Hall which replaced Clifford's Fort (HER 149-150).

A temporary station built in 1865 to replace the former terminus of the Blyth and Tyne Railway (HER 5117). This in turn was superseded by another station to the east (HER 2046).

The Blyth and Tyne was extending its system, and in 1860-1 opened a branch from Hartley to a terminus of its own on the north side of the main Tynemouth Road, some 500 metres to the west of the earlier site (HER 1200 the Oxford Street Terminus of the Newcastle and Berwick Railway). This site was suceeded in 1864 by a temporary site a little way to the north-east of its predecessor (HER 5118).

Recommended as a site with potential 16th century/17th century coal workings, however no surface features were identified in this area during the field visit. No evidence of surface features, but potentially important underground Medieval mining galleries. Although no surface remains were identified this does not preclude the existence of important medieval underground workings

Large commemorative stone celebrating the successful sinking of South Gosforth Colliery. On the east face the inscription reads "Main Dike distance from pit 319 yds cut 3rd June 1828". On west face "Main Dyke". The stone now lies on a modern housing estate and commemorates a shaft sinking that was achieved with great difficulty. The sinking is described in Hair 1844. Marker stone. Sandstone ashlar. Circa 1828. Round-topped slab about 1.5 metres high. The Main or 90 fathom dike was a serious obstacle to coalmining in Northumberland. An underground ball was held to commemorate this event; each guest hewed a souvenir piece of coal. LISTED GRADE 2

Stone and brick-built entrance to stone-lined tunnel; interpreted as a drift mine, but may have been for a railway incline. Restored by City Council in 1986. Part of the inclined railway from the Scotswood Delaval Drift passes under the former Scotswood, Newburn and Wylam Railway in the form of a tunnel passing through the embankment of the Railway across the road from the Vickers' Works.

Wooded area containing dispersed shafts with collars of spoil and also the earthwork remains of a horse-drawn waggonway. The shafts may date from 1551-1581, but are more likely to have been Silvertop's workings of 1728.
