10 Grey Street constructed as part of 2-10 Grey Street in 1842 but overtime more significantly linked to 21 Mosley Street. The first archival material dates to 1877. In 1906-1907 it became joined to 21 Mosley Street (HER 9191). Several plans for 12-14 Grey Street (HER 8833) show the original Dobson elevation. The 1906 plans show the ground and basement in use as Villa Nova Bar (HER 15560). The first floor appears to have been used as a 'smoke room' and the second floor as a bedroom. The current building dates to c.1908 - dated on serpentine pediment with armorial bearings. Ashlar with banded corner pilasters. Tall narrow building of four storeys and attic, one bay. Classical window treatment. Round-arched entrance,with coarse mouldings and carved spandrels, flanked by gigantic consoles. Included for group considerations. McCombie - company arms of Edinburgh Life Assurance Co. over the door between figures of Plenty and Security by C. Neuper of Eldon Square. First, second and third floor rooms have lost their fireplaces.

Terrace of 5 houses, now offices. Circa 1830. English bond brick with painted ashlar basement and dressings; cast iron balcony. Welsh slate roof. Basement and 3 storeys; 6 bays to No. 20, 3 to other houses and set-back right entrance bay to No. 14. End 3 bays project slightly. 8-panelled door to No.16, altered or renewed doors to others, with overlights in architraves. Ground-floor windows of 3 end bays have recessed apron panels in long architraves; central house has full-length windows; projecting stone sills to intermediate windows on ground floor and to all on second. First floor windows to floor level; wedge stone lintels. All windows sashes, most with glazing bars. Blind windows top floor no. 14. First flair band; anthemion-patterned balcony to Nos. 14-18. Low-pitched roof has ashlar-corniced ridge chimneys. McCombie - Jesmond Road West was a country lane until the opening of the General Cemetery of 1834-6 necessitated a carriage road. Development here was spasmodic, shown by detailed changes in the terraces. First the west end of the south side (this block), then another south block further on (HER 9074 and 8814). Brick - by then fashionable again - for the fronts, homely sandstone rubble for the rear. The gap was filled in the mid C19 (HER 8813). The buildings were recorded in 2013 by The Archaeological Practice ahead of renovation as student accommodation. The report concluded that the buildings were a good survival of a late Georgian, high status terrace. The internal features of the buildings became more consistent as building progressed from the southern end of Great North Road. All of the houses have dog-leg stairs with stick balusters and moulded handrails and originally with curtail steps. Almost all the fireplaces have been removed, partition walls inserted and many connecting doors knocked through party walls between what were originally separate properties. Features of note included a fireplace and range in the main kitchen of No.14 with a plate HENRY WALKER & SON, GALLOWGATE IRON WORKS, NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE. Also cornices, and cupboards with old panelled doors. No.20 contains the best plaster ceiling of the whole terrace, with Greek Key and Anthemion ornament.

5 Grey Street - originally formed a shop at ground floor that was linked to a single room on each upper floor by a staircase located to the rear. In 1859 it was the premises of Guthrie and Richards, hosiers. In 1874-75 J. Leddicoat, jeweller. 1881 Edward Leddicoat, watchmaker and jeweller, who lived here with his mother Elizabeth, his son and a servant. In 1894 Stevens and Company, tailors. In 1900 the Scottish Accident Life and Fidelity Insurance Company acquired no.5. They converted the cellar into a strongroom. In 1931 the premises were acquired by State Assurance Company Ltd until 1962. In the late 20th century the Duke of Wellington Public House on Drury Lane was amalgamated with the rear of 5 Grey Street. The retail ground floor façade dates to 1974.
7 & 9 Grey Street – Very little of the Georgian plan form and fabric survives in the current building. 1859 directory lists 7 and 9 as occupied by J. Walker, Drapers. By 1880 the tenancy had become the premises for Mather and Armstrong Ironmongers. At this time the shop had an ornate glazed front of two bays with gothic arched frames. In the 1890s the building underwent significant alterations as the ground and upper floors were separated to allow the upper levels to be rented out as offices. The ground floor was rented by Lister and Sons, silversmiths. The upper floors by Tyne Shipbuilder's Association and Tyneside Iron Trades. In 1897 the first floor offices were taken by Clayton and Gibson, solicitors. In 1913 the ground floor was completely remodelled to create a new entrance to the building and provide the internal layout for the Universal Permanent Building Society. In 1974 the shop frontage was replaced.
11 Grey Street – Originally designed to serve as a shop. 1859 directory lists Proctor and Son chemists (later Proctor, Son and Clague). In 1919 the occupiers were Mawson and Proctor Ltd, chemists and opticians. In 1937 the shop was acquired by the Scottish Temperance and General Assurance Company this led to substantial alterations internally and externally. In 1978 the building was altered for use as a restaurant.
13 Grey Street – Originally a hotel. 1844 known as the Commercial and Family Hotel, by 1859 it was renamed the Crown. In 1881 it was the Crown and Mitre. From 1891 the building had been converted into office accommodation. In 1894 9 firms were operating here, this had grown to 13 by 1900. The building remained in multiple occupancy until refurbishment in 1991. This refurbishment saw much of the original building altered including the servants quarters in the attic being stripped out and internal partitions removed. The building has an impressive vaulted cellar but the ceiling has been plastered and painted. The ground floor shop has an ornate cornice and ceiling rose which probably date to 1937.

Said to be based on the Corinthian temple of Vesta at Tivoli. McCombie - main ranges 1837-8: rounded corners with giant Corinthian columns on the upper floors, ribbed domes and ostrich-feather finials. Possibly inspired by Nash's West Strand Improvements in London 1830-2 and Sussex Place, 1822. Some original ground-floor detail including rustication at the corners survives. Upper floors restored as flats. Grainger intended the interior to be the town's corn market, but a rival bid on the Cloth Market was built. Instead, in 1839 he opened a colonnaded newsroom 'of unspeakable splendour' which later became an art gallery, concert hall and vaudeville theatre. The timber roof, described in 1838 as being built 'on principles of ecclesiastical architecture' was perhaps a factor in the intense fire which destroyed the interior in 1901. The central space was re-opened as the Central Arcade in 1906.
