Description
The Percy Arms is shown on the Ordnance Survey first edition map of 1858 as the eastern end of a row of buildings fronting what is now Queens Road. The public house consists of a central T-shaped two storey building with stone chimneys at the centre and to the gable ends, which probably represents the original building, possibly a farmhouse related to the ranges of probable farm buildings and gingang shown to the south. This is now surrounded by a number of single storey flat roofed extensions. It is labelled as 'P.H.' by the time of the Ordnance Survey second edition map of 1897.
The car park was once known as High Square. In the 1850s a farmer ran the pub. It was owned by the Duke of Northumberland and bought by Newcastle Breweries in 1943.
