Known as 'Waller's' the bicycle ground had a cinder track and small grandstand. It was established by professional cyclist George Waller using some of his 100 guineas winnings from the 1879 Six Day Championship of the World at the Agricultural Hall in Islington, London. In six days Waller completed 10,500 laps of the small indoor track (1,404 miles!). Waller promoted races for amateur and professional cyclists. The ground was not successful and closed in 1884. Waller's High Bicycle (Penny Farthing) is now in the collection of Beamish Museum. His trophy for winning the Six Day Championship is in Monkwearmouth Station Museum.

J. Collingwood Bruce wrote in 1863 that a cock pit had flourished in Newcastle's Westgate 'even during the Commonwealth, when all public amusements were regularly interdicted'.

Formed in 1865. A section of the clubhouse dates back to the 1860s or 70s. It may be the oldest surviving sports related building in Tyne and Wear. Part of the gateway and original boundary wall also remain (HER16109). The pavilion has been modernised and extended almost beyond recognition. The pavilion was brick with an ornate porch and timberwork on the gable.

Formed in 1864. Settled at their present ground in 1892. South North Cricket Club is at Roseworth Terrace between Gosforth High Street and Moor Road North in central Gosforth. The club was a founder member of the Tyneside Senior League winning the league in four successive years from 1906 to 1909. It moved to its present ground in Gosforth in 1892 when Northumberland entertained the touring Australians (losing by an innings). In 1923 the club members purchased the freehold to the ground for £5,500. In 1933 the pavilion was built to designs by Marshall & Tweedy.
The club joined the newly-formed Northumberland League in 1934 and for 11 seasons between 1924 and 1934 was captained by George Harbottle. George remained a stawart of the club and was President from 1968 to his death in 1998 aged 104. The post war period yielded the club’s greatest successes, winning the Northumberland League seven times between 1947 and 1967 and again in 1988 and 1997. In 2003 Newcastle Cricket Centre opened, costing £1.5 million. This is an indoor coaching facility. It was designed by David Morley Architects of London.
