Built in 1896 to a design by J.W. Dyson. Now demolished.

Between 1886 and 1888 the main block of St. Nicholas hospital was extended to a design by local architect A.B. Plummer of Cloth Market, Newcastle. East and west wings were added to the main block (HER 9131) and the kitchen and dining room extended and remodelled. This provided accomodation for another 80 patients. The east wind extension (wards 1 & 2, Pavilion Block) was demolished in the early 1990s along with the laundry. By 1891 the number of patients has risen to over 400 and the City Council decided to enlarge the hospital. A new separate building to the east would include a recreation hall, church, residence for the Medical Superintendent (never built), new entrance lodge and 10 cottages for married attendants. J.W. Dyson, architect of Grey Street in Newcastle and Burt Hall in Northumberland Road was appointed as architect. The massive extension was added in 1896, along with a new laundry (demolished in 1990) and airing yards. The theatre/recreation hall (HER 9057) is listed grade 2. By 1900 the hospital provided accomodation for 1100 patients, reputedly for WW1 shell shock victims. In 1915 Dyson also designed two separate red-brick North and South Villas. These have been demolished. The villas were initially used for WW1 casualties brought in by train to West Gosforth station. The whole hospital was taken over by the Ministry of War during WW1. It was handed back to the city in 1920 and was renamed "City of Newcastle Mental Hospital". The hospital was taken over by the NHS in 1948 and renamed "St. Nicholas Hospital".

High Coxlodge appears on the first edition map (1858). In 1865 the Magistrates of Newcastle purchased the homestead, then known as Dodds Farm, and 57 acres of land for a new asylum. Within a year the stone cottage, barn and other farm buildings had been altered to accommodate 33 patients transferred from Bensham Asylum (in 1864 Durham County Magistrates refused to renew the contract of Bensham Asylum and so the Corporation Committee were forced to find a new asylum site). The second edition OS named the farmstead Asylum Farm.

St. Nicholas Hospital Conservation Area was designated in 1991. It includes the C19 hospital buildings (the original symmetrical hospital block of 1867 by Moffat, HER 9131, and the theatre/recreation hall of 1896, HER 5057, are listed grade 2) in a pastoral parkland setting with surrounding stone wall (2.5m high built of squared and roughly dressed stone with a half-round hand-dressed stone coping) which marks the land bought by the Health Commission of the Mental Health Corporation (approx 100 acres). The hospital site regarded as special because it includes Dodds Farm (farmstead shown on Kenton Road as High Coxlodge on OS first edition map of 1858, purchased in 1865 for conversion into an asylum for 33 patients transferred from Bensham Asylum), and a major group of well-built Victorian hospital buildings built from stone from Kenton Quarry. The site represents the development of mental health care from 1865 and 1988. It is unique in Newcastle. The former cricket field, entrance drive and Victorian boiler room complex are not within the Conservation Area bit are potentially worthy of inclusion.

Brandling Village Conservation Area was designated in 1976 as an excellent example of a Victorian and Edwardian suburb developed between 1820 and 1920. Within it there are 36 grade 2 listed buildings. Brandling Village contains some of the best examples of late Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian domestic architecture in Newcastle. They range from polite Georgian residences to workers cottages. The western side of the conservation area is soft landscaped open space - school playing fields, Brandling Park (HER 9888) and St. Andrew's Cemetery (HER 5246). There are three mid Victorian Institutional developments - the Northern Counties School for the Deaf (HER 9901), the former Princess Mary Maternity Hospital (HER 9068 and 9893) and the Fleming Memorial Hospital (HER 9055). The later C19 Jesmond United Reform Church (HER 9090) and Newcastle Church High School (HER 9892). C19 residential terraces Brandling Park (HER 8871) and Abbotsford Terrace (HER 10084). To the east of Brandling Village are predominantly mid Victorian to early C20 residential terraces, simple in design with a strong architectural integrity and uniformity. In 1820 the development of Brandling Village first began on land belonging to Robert Warwick. Terraced cottages were built for employees of the Jesmond coal mines along either side of the High Street, south of Clayton Park Square and along South and East Front. Brandling Place and Brandling Place South (HER 8874, 9016, 9163) were built along with cottages linking the Great North Road to Burdon Place. From the mid C19 Brandling Village changed from a semi-rural development to one surrounded by planned suburban development of terraced housing for middle class families. By 1860 Brandling Park (HER 9888) and its bowling green (HER 10818) had been laid out along with St. Andrew's Cemetery (HER 5246). The three charitable institutions were built on the edge of the Town Moor. Jesmond United Reform Church (HER 9090) was built in 1888 and Church High School (HER 9892) in 1890. Jesmond Parish Church (HER 8994) was built in the late 1850s. The late Victorian Eskdale and Eslington Terraces were given impetus by the development of the Blyth and Tyne Railway and the horse-drawn tram service on Osborne Road which was in service by the 1880s.

Small planned estate of 31 houses, mainly semi-detached lying between Walbottle Road and North Walbottle Waggonway (HER 3938). Designated as a Conservation Area in 1987 because this small suburb is unique to Newcastle and probably Tyneside in being an early C20 creation contemporary with the Garden City Movement. The houses are modern in size but attractively designed. They are built in good quality red facing brick, sandstone lintels, cills and mullions, sash windows, red brick chimneys, with slate roofs. Each house is set in a large garden plot around half an acre in size. The estate roads are private and are hedge and tree lined with wide grass verges. In early 1910 F. Temporley, Clerk of Works to the Duke of Northumberland submitted plans to Newburn Urban District Council for 10 semi-detached houses in a field south of North Walbottle Colliery on behalf of the Walbottle Workman's Association. In June 1910 plans for the remaining houses were submitted. Over time the estate has been gentrified. The gardens intended as private allotments are now domestic gardens. Many of the houses have altered window frames and doors, some have unsympathetic extensions. No. 11a post dates the initial estate and stands out as a later addition.

Framlington Place Conservation Area was designated in 1976. It comprises of C19 terraced housing and large detached dwellings. The principal development is the mid C19 Framlington Place (HER 8854, 8988, 9149) with their long front gardens which overlooks the culverted Pandon Burn (HER 11114). To the north is the Leazes Brewery site (HER 4009), where the mid C18 Brewery House (HER 8781) still stands surrounded by C20 extensions and the University Sports Hall. Within the Conservation Area there are 35 grade 2 listed buildings. Thomas Oliver's survey of 1830 shows Claremont Place (HER 9072, 9151), a Georgian terrace and the first recorded development with the Conservation Area. He records that "Claremont Place is considered as a pleasant country residence, at the same time, in the middle of the Town and County of Newcastle". Claremont Terrace formed part of the early C19 northern extension of the City which was separated by orchards from the industrial complexes of the Leazes Brewery and Chimney Mills shown on Thomas Oliver's survey of 1844. During the C19 this area continued to develop as a prosperous middle class suburb. Framlington Place was a phased development constructed between 1851 and 1867. It would have rivalled Thomas Oliver's Leazes Terrace in terms of scale and designed austere grandeur. It terminates with the grade 2 listed Framlington House (HER 8989). To the south of this is a small unmanaged wooded coppice and a mid C19 stone drinking fountain. The carriage road which ran between the properties and the Pandon Burn still survives as a leafy lane. The southern boundary of the Conservation is marked by the grade 2 listed Royal Victoria Infirmary red brick boundary wall with spearhead railings (HER 9241). The eastern boundary of the Conservation area is the early C19 lane (Lovers Lane) beside No. 17 Claremont Place. Claremont House (HER 8853) is listed grade 2. The five remaining terraced houses of Wardle Terrace are contemporary with Framlington Place and is built of buff brickwork with ashlar detailing and slate roof. North Terrace (HER 10808, 10809) was built pre 1859, Claremont Terrace and Claremont Street between 1859 and 1898. The grade 2 listed 1890 red brick Gothic revival parish church of St. Luke (HER 8152, 8855) provides a strong end stop to the Conservation Area.

Summerhill represents a large survival from the early part of the physical expansion of Newcastle during the C19 with well-weathered, polite, late-Georgian terraced housing which has a strong synergy with topography. By 1723 Summer Hill House, the area's first major building, was built on the hill near Elswick Lane for Mr Barber, an Irish bookseller who named it after a place near Dublin where he grew up. There were nurseries on the slope below, which became the 'square' around which housing would later be built. Hadwin Bragg, a Quaker, rebuilt Summer Hill in the late 1700s as a double-bow fronted house with large grounds. By 1819 he had acquired the land to the south and east, a small estate which would become the Summerhill area. As Newcastle grew radically from the 1760s, the Westgate Township was one of the first areas to absorb expansion outside the town walls. Summerhill soon became a sought-after place. The houses on Westgate Hill were built in the 1810s by local builder Riddell Robson. John Dobson is believed to have played a part in the design of Greenfield Place (HER 8825), built by R. Maving by 1823. Jonathan Priestman, Bragg's son-in-law continued to build. Summerhill Grove (HER 8724) was built in 1820. Ignatius Bonomi built his Tudor-style priory next door in 1822. The nursery became a collection of gardens, summerhouses, walks and arbours. Summerhill Terrace (HER 8970) was built from the late 1830s to designs by Priestman. West Garden Street, now the bottom end of Summerhill Terrace was also laid out by Priestman. Westgate Hill Cemetery opened in 1829. Westgate Hill Terrace was built around 1840. York Street was built 1851-55. John Dobson built Barber Surgeons' Hall (HER 4648) by 1850. Garden Terrace, now Winchester Terrace (HER 9217) was built 1850-1858 and 1-6 Summerhill Terrace between 1860 and 1865. St. Matthew's Church (HER 6283) was built in 1877, the tower in 1895. C20 developments include Summerhill bowling club, the synagogue (now offices) built in 1925 in Ravensworth Terrace, the park set out in 1935 for George V's Silver Jubilee, Our Lady & St Anne's School on Summerhill Grove's gardens, Nomad's 1980s social housing on Summerhill Terrace (broadly sympathetic pastiche style).

The Central Conservation Area was originally in three parts - two were designated in 1968 and the third in 1970. All three areas were amalgamated into one single area in 1973. The CA has been extended three times - in 1981 to incorporate Westgate Road, All Saints Church and the Quayside; in 1987 to incorporate Bath Lane, Gallowgate, Newgate Street and Corporation Street; and in May 2001 to include the area south of Central Station. The medieval burgage plot and street layout is still apparent by the markets. The Quayside frontage is noted for its residential and commercial nature. There are Richard Grainger's Georgian developments along Grey Street, Grainger Street and Clayton Street. The area South of Central Station is industrial rather than commercial or residential. It contains a number of buildings linked to Robert Stephenson and the development of transport.
