Built 1888 by a group of gentlemen newly arrived in Whitley as the Whitley Club Co. to rival gentlemen's clubs in the cities. The scheme was slow to start, and parts of the premises had to be let out. Around 1895 James Young opened a draper's store on the ground floor, later becoming Young & Aiston, then Aiston & Son. W.J. Sparkes later took over the premises. Around 1914 it became Lloyd's Bank. The present frontage was added in the 1920s for the bank. The club remained on the first floor. LOCAL LIST

Architect was J.C. Maxwell of Stanley Street West. Contractor was J.L. Miller of Tynemouth, better known as the builder of St. Mary's Lighthouse. The foundation stone was laid in 1907. It was a school for boys and girls with a 'pupil teachers centre' (where schoolchildren taught colleagues with lower grades whilst continuing with their own learning). It was built to accommodate 400 scholars and pupil teachers, most of whom paid fees for their education. The opening ceremony was on the 8th November 1909 by Alderman Isaac Black who had first raised the scheme in 1894. The school became an adult education centre in 1973 when Norham High School opened. It is now Tynemouth College.
