This interesting and quirky looking building on Northumberland Street began life as a 19th Century house. It was later transformed into a shop and now forms part of a bustling shopping street. Its façade is ornately decorated with plaster pargetting, which was added in 1953 to commemorate the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. The building is four storeys high with a stylish box window on its first floor, and a sandstone elevation on the side. In 2013 this is Moss.

This quadrangle was laid out and planted in a ‘low and gentle’ style in 1947-9 by J S Allen, Professor of Town and Country Planning, and was designed as a memorial garden to all those members of the university who had lost their lives in the two world wars. The space consists of flowerbeds, trees, grass areas, benches and a paved walkway and is a busy yet peaceful thoroughfare through the university. It is surrounded on all sides by fine Listed buildings, which are all part of the university {1}. At one corner is a circular bronze plaque 18 inches in diameter decorated with laurel leaves. "1914-18 1939-45 THIS GARDEN QUADRANGLE WAS LAID OUT IN 1949 IN MEMORY OF ALL MEMBERS OF THE NEWCASTLE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF DURHAM WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES IN TWO WARS". Commissioned by Kings College {www.newmp.org.uk}. T

Marlborough House has an impressive four storey high façade which adds presence to the area. The frontage has been constructed from both sandstone and brick, and there is a mix of columns and mullions, with a triangular pediment situated near the top. A wrought iron sign is located at the very top with ‘Established 1840’ written on it. A large ‘Anderson and Garland’ sign is visible on the 4th floor. The remaining sides of the building consist of plain brick faces.

Moffat Pavilion forms part of one of the most important areas of green space in Newcastle. The Pavilion is one of the earliest buildings to survive in Leazes Park.

Haymarket metro station is highly significant as the only metro station within the heart of Newcastle city centre with a distinctive over-ground surface building. This bustling station is a circular building made out of glass and metal. Its shape complements the buildings around it, whilst its relatively low height retains the sense of place created by the adjacent war memorial. McCombie - the Haymarket Metro Station was suitably simple, a spacious low brown drum. In 2009 it was replaced with a huge glazed dome, with parabolic-arched sides; the interior filled with shops. Design by Reid Jubb Brown.

This three storey brick and stone Georgian building is a reminder of the vital role that the north east played in the development of the railways. This is the best surviving building from the Hawthorn Engineering Works. The company later amalgamated with Robert Stephenson & Company and became locally, nationally and internationally significant in the Steam Age. In 1859 this part of the site was being used as a pattern shop. In 1911 the building was converted into offices for R&W Hawthorn Leslie & Co. Now the office of Project North East. Adjoining Hawthorn House to the south are 1 and 2 Hawthorn Cottages, likely to date to the same period. Two storeys high, with the pattern shop extending over them on a third storey. Between 1859 and 1896 the building had an extension added to the south-east rear wall. The top floor was added later, probably in the early C20. The window frames are C20. Hawthorn House has a modern sheet metal roof, but that of the cottages is still slate.

The buildings of Hanover Street, and the street itself, survive as records of the importance of industry in nineteenth-century Newcastle. The bonded warehouses off the street date to 1841-1844 and are evidence of the significance of Newcastle as an industrial centre. Most of the buildings are of brick and stone. The unlisted buildings on the north side of the street were constructed for Robert Stephenson & Company, and thus are connected with one of Newcastle’s great industrialists. There are listed buildings on either side of the street (coppersmith's shop on north side HER 9252 and bonded warehouses on south side HER 5168).

The Hanging Gardens are a contemporary landscaped area developed on the steeply sloping bank running down to the Close, within the boundary of the historic town wall. The formerly derelict site was developed in the early 1990s by Anthony Walker and Partners. The tiers are constructed from brick walls and hold areas of trees, bushes and ferns as well as grassed spaces. The walkways are paved and tarmacked, and wind up the terraces which are separated by iron railings. The Hanging gardens won the Landscape Institute National Design award in 1993.

Goldborough Court, used as student halls of residence, is a good example of modern landscaping and architecture. Built in the late twentieth century, it is uniquely designed as a long block of semi-hexagonal curves. It was built along with Owen Court, Lowdon Court, Esther Campbell Court and a boiler/laundry and squash court building. It has rectangular single pane windows set out in columns, as well as occasional triangular windows on the corners. Designed by Kendrick and Lynn Associates in 1971. The flats were minimally decorated and utilitarian in appearance with unplastered painted internal brick walls. The open plan common area and kitchen led onto corridors, bedrooms, a lavatory and shower room. The accommodation blocks varied between 2-4 stories in height.
This building was formerly on the Newcastle local list, but was demolished c.2016 (Google Earth Pro aerial photos).

The former home of Charlton’s Bond is a handsome building in the city centre of Newcastle. It was built in 1886 as a three storey duty free bond warehouse. Brick and ornate stone are used effectively to make the building look attractive, especially in its arched entrance and upper floors. The building also has a Tudor inspired chimney together with a weathervane. ‘Charlton’s Bonds’ is inscribed into the stone of the upper floor {1}. Richard Charlton began a partnership with Peter Wright at the Westgate Tavern in 1858. In 1899 a limited company was formed with Charlton and his sons as shareholders. Charlton's Bonds was an imposing building with whinstone façade. The ground floor was offices and a counting house. There was a duty-paid warehouse in one wing, and cellars and bottling sections for beers and spirits. Richard Charlton died in 1912. His eldest son William Hedley Charlton died in 1917. By 1918 the company owned ten pubs in Newcastle. The company was absorbed by A H Higginbottom & Co. in 1920. McCombie - by Lamb & Armstrong, 1885 with Gothic-derived detail. Recorded in 2016 ahead of proposed refurbishment.
