Designed by Ryder and Yates. Headquarters for the Northern Gas Board (a committee of local businessmen and experts who oversaw the running of the gas industry in the north). Built 1965. represented the high point of the practice's output. Won a series of architectural awards - RIBA Architecture Award 1966, Concrete Society Commendation 1968, Civic Trust Award 1968. The offices were located on two floors around a central courtyard. The lower floor was raised on columns above the ground. The offices were divided internally by demountable partitions which allowed for a flexible space. Ryder and Yates later regretted not patenting this design. Only the boardroom and toilets had fixed walls. Lighting was provided by fluorescent tubes set in modular bays. Telephone and electrical points were set in the floor. There was a small private auditorium for lectures and seminars. The main stair, desk and foundation stone in the reception were sculptural. A single storey block provided a restaurant and caretaker's flat, linked to the main building by a glazed walkway. The rooflight was made of fibreglass in the shape of the Minoan horns of Knossos, Crete. There was a pyramid at the entrance to the site which housed a giant gas meter. Each face was a different colour. There was a cascade in a green glass cylinder flowing into a pool, to cool the air-conditioning system. The use of the curtain wall system (glazing and vitreous steel panels in aluminium frames) for the upper floors was one of the first in the North. In-between the curtain wall panels are dark grey steel fire-stop panels. Norgas House has full air-conditioning in the main block, warm-air heating in the restaurant block and under-slab heating to the external concrete entrance court to prevent ice forming in winter. The boiler house was set within glass walls. The service towers on the roof were sculptural. Peter Yates likened Norgas House to 'a jellyfish capable of extending down and out in all direction and as hurriedly contracting'. In 1967 the open ground floor was enclosed to accommodate more staff. A computer centre was added in 1974. This won a Financial Times Award in 1975. The building was totally refurbished in the early 1990s and the Minoan horns, boardroom and stairs were removed. For this reason, the building has not been listed. It was then occupied by Transco. Demolished in 2013.

1969 by Ryder and Yates, famous North-East architects, for the Northern Gas Pension Fund. Building has been overclad with profiled sheeting which has hidden the crispness of the original design. Three bands of concrete cantilevered from hidden piers. Bands of windows deeply recessed. This building echoes Norgas House. The building was put forward for listing in 2011 but was not added to the list. English Heritage's Advice Report states that Ryder and Yates were committed to the modernist ethos and were influenced by Le Corbusier and Lubetkin. Their work is considered to be outstanding and innovative. Stephenson House demonstrates Le Corbusier influences. It is a straight forward but elegant design. It has broad horizontal bands of walling alternating with narrow bands of windows. The materials were chosen to react slowly to temperature change and windows reduced to minimum size to reduce the impact of solar gain. Formerly exposed concrete surfaces have later been clad with profiled sheeting which hides the crispness of the original design. The building lacks many of the sculptural features of Norgas House and the Engineering Research Station building. The only feature of note is the sculptural vents on the south elevation. The spatial complexity of Stephenson House is special. The building was designed around an open inner courtyard containing a blue mosaic pool, bridged by a ramp. Access was originally gained to the interior via four staircases and the ramp. These elements have been altered and the way in which the building is accessed has been re-modelled. The upper floor office space at Stephenson House might have been designed to be flexible by the use of innovative moveable partitions but these have been lost and the space is now open plan.

Former Ryder and Yates offices, 1964, recently a computer software company office. The steel frame of this building was a reused 1962 exhibition stand for British Gypsum. The stand resembled a small two-storey building. It had a white façade, ribbon windows, a flat roof and eight slender steel columns with lattice girders spanning the roof space. The new office formed around the recycled steelwork was single-storey, rectangular and had continuous glazing along each elevation within a frame of Formica panels. Inside the conference and interview rooms were divided by clear glass. Up to 40 architects and engineers could be accommodated in this open plan space. Ryder and Yates replaced the original Formica faced plywood panels with quartz-faced concrete panels in the 1970s. Ryder, the successors to Ryder and Yates vacated the office in 2002. Recently computer software company offices, vacant in late 2014. The building was listed Grade II in November 2014. The EH advice report states the reasons for designation as: architectural and design interest, the architects, building type and degree of survival. The building has strong character, clean lines and sharp details. It provides an interesting reflection of link between modern architecture and exhibition design. The design of the building, its form and internal arrangements, demonstrate Ryder and Yates multi-disciplinary approach to design providing shared workspace for architects, engineers, designers and landscape architects. The architects, Ryder and Yates were one of the most important post-war regional firms, this building demonstrates their modernist principles of design. It is a rare surviving example of a purpose built post-war architects' office and is little altered.
This building appears to have been listed Grade II in 2014 but is no longer listed.

Farmhouse of Village Farm. Now Dolly Dimples shop.

The shop premises started life as the Highlander Hotel in 1847. It later became a shabine, an unlawful drinking den known locally as 'The Cabbage Patch'. The building was rebuilt in 1878 to the design of H. Miller. During WW2 it became a navy office. William Wight started his grocer's business here in 1929. The shop provided fishing fleets with stores and provisions.

Part of the Bath Assembly Rooms/Hotel of 1860. A carriage shelter with arched entrances onto Front Street. The archway was designed to keep carriages sheltered at the Bath Hotel. The elegant shape of arches is a great feature on Front Street.

Building with 1903 date stone. Three storeys plus dormers. Large impressive sash windows on upper floors. Window under datestone on High Street East façade is semi-circular. Boots the Chemist occupied the corner shop before 1914 until at least the 1930s. Now occupied by Chainstore Clothing Co.

Former Wallsend Café. Now Greenways Value Foods. George Burton Hunter built this building in 1883 as the Café and Athenaeum, to further his interests in temperance and education. The Café served meals and offered meeting places for clubs and trade unions. Evening classes in technical education, mathematics and languages were held in the Athenaeum. A branch of Burton's opened in the 1920s in the building; later to be replaced by Grafton’s ladies’ outfitters. It is a large, impressive building, with good positioning at the junction of two of Wallsend’s most important roads. Also has a good relationship with Central Buildings on the opposite corner.

1930s or 1940s post office. Corner plot. Arched windows on ground floor. Rectangular windows above. Door on corner has stone surround. Flat roof. Now the "Metro Grill".

The buildings were built by the Wallsend Industrial Cooperative Society established in 1862 and the buildings date from 1867. They have two plaques linked to the cooperative movement a 'handshake' and a 'beehive'. There were shop units on the ground floor of the Carville Road Frontage opposite other shops. The majority of the building was first used as warehouses and storage with stables in a yard from an entrance off Frank Street. It has had a number of uses since including a gym and indoor market, a furniture warehouse as well as an amusement centre (Dunes Amusements). Brick building with symmetrical gables to Carville Road. Datestone of 1862. Recorded in 2013 ahead of demolition. Inside, some of the original floor plan survives on the first floor but few fittings. The second floor is better preserved with original windows, doors, panelling and roof structure. The most interesting feature is the second floor lecture hall, which remained intact, although a partition wall had been built in front of the stage and an underdrawn ceiling covered the decorative roof trusses.
