At west end wall is ramped up to a pair of square gate piers with slipped and chamfered tops.

Houses, now shops and business premises, formerly the White Hart Inn (No. 14) and Old Durham House Public House (No. 16). Late C16, incorporating some medieval fabric, refronted late C18, with late C19-early C20 shops. Flemish bond brick, colourwashed with moulded stone eaves cornice, refronting timber framing. No.12 remodelled 1924 by Stockwell and Ditchburn. Welsh slate roof with tiled ridge.
Main street front of 3 storeys, 4 bays. In 3rd bay a vehicle entrance to White Hart yard. 3 small C 19 shop-fronts in other bays. Upper windows replaced sashes under flat gauged brick arches. Old stonework in rear wall.
Rear wing to White Hart yard 2 storeys, 4 bays, irregular. Early Cl9 mock timbered and pebble-dashed facade. Elaborate central doorway flanked by large shop windows with sash windows above; seventeenth-century window. To left the rendered section with a deep plinth has a moulded and 4-centred arched doorway.
INTERIOR: ground floor of bay to left of yard entrance has very heavy ceiling beams. Some interval partitions have timber studding. The whole first floor is one large 4-bay room. Heavy beams divide the bays and between these are close-set joists with trilobe mouldings and elegantly run-out stops. In southern part of rear wall a stone fireplace with massive chamfered lintel and solid jambs corbelled-out in two stages to support the lintel. Jambs are chamfered on shaft to corbels and have small broaches at top and bottom. At north end of room a smaller similar fireplace whose right jamb is damaged and left jamb rebuilt in brick. All these features appear to be late C16 and original. In rear wing which is part of No 16, the first floor ceiling shows similar heavy beams, but no visible joists. These buildings occupy medieval burgage plots, rare survivals in Newcastle, and retain considerable amounts of early fabric behind later facades.
McCombie - Nos. 14-16 is one of Newcastle's most important houses, its timber frame disguised by an 18th century brick front and 20th century shopfronts flanking a passageway to White Hart Yard. Above, the timber jetty has been cut back and the brick-faced front leans forward. First floor rear wall with two 16th century fireplaces, one re-arranged; a Tudor stone arch to the south rear wing. Second floor closet with old wallpaper. Main roof of a local type (cf. No. 35 The Close and Trinity House rigging loft), tree-ring-dated to the 1520s. Kingpost construction, the ridge with mortices for longitudinal bracing; sturdy tie-beams on curved braces. Brick-nogged gables. Bennison - The White Hart was bought by Fitzgerald's in 1893. Modernised (the bar was lengthened) in 1900 by James Cackett, local architect, and lost its licence in 1917. In 1903 Andy Aitken, captain of Newcastle United and Scotland, became landlord. He gave up the tenancy in 1906 and went on to manage Middlesbrough Football Club. The [Old] Durham House was owned by John Nimmo & Sons, Castle Eden brewer, in the early 1880s. By 1894 Bourgogne & Co, wine and spirit merchants were tenants. It was acquired by Bass, Ratcliff & Gretton in 1907, was converted into the Rajah restaurant in 1965, then was a pub called President's and then Kiss (to confuse matters, Kiss is in 2013 No. 18 Cloth Market). In 2013 No. 14 is Take Two and No. 16 is the Siciliy Takeaway and former Salisbury Print. Recorded in 2002 by NCAS. Recorded in 2017 by Addyman Archaeology. In 2019 the building was recorded by Addyman Archaeology to record newly exposed historic fabric after unmonitored soft-stripping building works. Dated C16th.
