No. 1 Osborne Avenue was built and occupied by William Temple, who built much of the housing between here and Acorn Road to the north. On its gable end facing Osborne Road the house is decorated with floral terracotta tiles and the date 1878. Temple's daughter, a botanist, persuaded her father to name his new streets after plants (Acorn Road, Fern Avenue, Gowan Terrace, Holly Avenue, Larkspur Terrace, Lily Crescent and Avenue, Mistletoe Road). Later Temple moved to a bigger house on Osborne Road (Tyneholme) - now the site of the Nuffield Hospital.

Two-storey terraced houses on the east side of St. George's Terrace. Between Mistletoe Road and Acorn Road 28 houses were built 1882-1885 and were called Moor View. The houses from Acorn Road northwards were built 1889-1900 and were called St. George's Terrace after the newly built Church of St. George built in 1888. Moor View became part of St. George's Terrace in 1901. In 1971 five houses at the corner of Acorn Road were demolished for a small supermarket.

Combined shops and dwellings on the west side of St. George's Terrace between Thornleigh Road and Coniston Avenue. Completed in 1900. In 1910 the shops included a drapers, a creamery, ladies' outfitter, bakery, grocery and pharmacy. Today they are a coffee house, post office, estate agency, pharmacy and wine shop. The rest of the road was completed by 1906 with ten more shops, terraced houses and two churches.

On the corner of Osborne Road and Acorn Road. Built as a private house around 1893. The bank moved in around 1893 and shared the property with the City Engineer W.G. Laws, until his death in 1904. The left hand bay window became the present door into the bank. Cash machines have replaced the right hand bay window.

Mansions built by 1910 on Lord Armstrong's land. 'Ruthven' was built around 1907 for Bill Quay shipbuilder William Wood of Wood and Skinner. Later residents included a paper merchant and a Newcastle Town Clerk. 'Shirley' was built in 1903 for shipbuilder Richard Saxton White of Armstrong Whitworth & Co Ltd. Other houses were 'Hunstanworth', 'Oaklea', 'Holm Lodge' and 'Chesters Court'. Residents included shipowners, solicitors, a tea merchant, Sir Angus Watson, food manufacturer at Skipper Sardines and philanthropist. Adderstone Crescent was named after Adderstone Hall near Belford where Lord Armstrong's great nephew and heir lived. The houses are now largely apartments.

The Lawn Tennis Club was founded in 1883 at Fern Avenue. It is the oldest club in Newcastle and amongst the oldest in the world. Its logo is a fern leaf. In 1890 the club moved to this site on Osborne Road. They had five grass courts and a pavilion. There were 102 members. Annual subscription was £1 10s for men and one guinea for ladies. The land was rented from Mr Burdon-Sanderson for £30 a year. The land was bought outright in 1920. In 1973 two of the courts were changed to red shale. Several years later the courts nearest to Osborne Road were sold for The Lawns residential development. The club's name and foundation date are inscribed on an arch over the iron gate on Osborne Road. At present there are three 'all weather' courts and a pavilion on site. In 1902 one of the club's members, Muriel Evelyn Robb, won the ladies' singles title at Wimbledon. She had already won previous mixed doubles and doubles. She died in 1906 aged 28 and is buried in Jesmond Old Cemetery.

Impressive row of six red brick houses. Built as private dwellings around 1901. No. 131 was the Northern Counties Training College of Cookery and Domestic Science for over 10 years. No. 133 was the regional division of the National Council of the YMCA for at least 20 years. No. 135 was a private school for a short time.

Opened in 1938 on the site of a temporary tin Roman Catholic Church of the Holy Name (see HER 11431). The pool had Art Deco decoration and was designed for other purposes during winter months.

Changing rooms were set aside from the pool.There were limited numbers of individual slipper baths. Indoor bowling began in 1948. The Friends of Jesmond Pool formed in 1989. In March 1991 the pool closed. Users formed the Jesmond Swimming Project, a not for profit company. The pool re-opened on 11 April 1992 following a £50,000 award from the Foundation for Sport and the Arts. In February 2003 a Lottery funded £1.5 million refurbishment was completed.

The 87 dwellings were largely completed in 1902-4 and consist mainly of Tyneside Flats and some two-storey houses. From 1938 to 1967 yellow trolley buses used this road and Lonsdale Terrace as a turning loop for the Osborne Road to Central Station service.

Built by Charles Mitchell in the 1870s to serve as a tradesmen's entrance to Jesmond Towers. An attractive building on Jesmond Dene Road. In the 1970s the gateway was blocked with a wall to prevent access to LA Sagesse School. Between this lodge and the top of Matthew Bank is an inscribed stone low down on the roadside wall marked 'WS 1820'. Recorded 2013 by Archaeological Services Durham University. This is a larger and more substantial house than the West Lodge. There are three high ceilinged main rooms, each with a fireplace. The interior was not photographed due to the house being inhabited.
