Place
Offerton
Description
Rectangular parch mark visible on Google Earth in an arable field north of Offerton village. It is approx 61m x 213m in size and takes the form of a rectangle with a square at the eastern end. There may be another square feature to the immediate north. Given the close proximity of Offerton medieval village and the river crossing or dam (possibly Roman or medieval at Hylton) this could be archaeological in origin. However it looks very angular in shape and may be related to agricultural activity. Local residents may undertake fieldwalking on the site.

Description
Post-war oil depot with huge circular tanks, shown on Ordnance Survey fifth edition. The depot subsequently became much bigger extending south across the former allotment gardens down to Jarrow Hall. Part of the site was archaeologically excavated in 1989-90 by Tyne and Wear Museums and evidence of medieval settlement was recorded, along with a large ditch (interpreted as the possible monastic vallum) and a Roman amphora sherd. The oil depot site was subsequently landscaped (topsoil imported to raise ground levels) by the Urban Development Corporation and became part of the Bede's World site.

Jarrow
Description
In 1989-90 Tyne and Wear Museums carried out a series of archaeological excavations on the site of a post-war Shell Oil depot. This land is now part of the Bede's World site and lies north of Old Jarrow Hall. In one of the excavation areas a complex of large re-cut ditches were recorded. The ditches were several metres wide. A 80m length of the ditch lay within the excavation area. The fill contained 12th to 14th century pottery. The ditches were replaced by a stone wall with facing stones facing the river and a possible turf bank to the rear. There was evidence of a possible stock enclosure attached to the landward side. Speak suggested that the ditch could represent the vallum of the Saxon monastery, which had been reduced in the medieval period to a low rubble bank or silted-up ditch. The ditch lay 325m north of the monastery and could have formed an enclosure around the monastery in the bend of the River Don. Few other monastic valla are recorded (Whitby has been suggested) but a 13 feet wide foundation found 18m north-east of St. Paul's by Radford in 1954 was interpreted as part of a vallum.

Description
Wesleyan Chapel opened Good Friday 29th March 1839. Constructed of roughly coursed sandstone with lancet windows with a central entrance with gabled hood. A trefoil window was positioned about the front entrance. Originally rectangular in plan, the addition of a schoolroom in 1873 changed the plan to T-shaped. Between the 1930s and 1950s a toilet block and coal bunker was added to the NW corner of the school house. Closed 1975. 2015 used as an embroidery and print works by Elite Embroidery. Recorded in 2015 ahead of demolition. The interior of the chapel had been stripped of original features apart from a painted text of 'The Lord is in His Holy Temple' from the Book of Habakkuk in the Old Testament, the trefoil window and a partially ornamented scissor roof truss. The school house interior had also been stripped with only some curved ceiling decoration remaining. The exterior was described as being in good condition. A second storey had been erected within each building and extra partitions inserted.
