During the Civil War seige of Newcastle in 1644, one of the main Scottish gun batteries lay on the south-western side of the town. Terry states that the "south-western battery would probably be placed on the rising ground above the present infirmary and cattle market. From such a position it would cover the walls from Westgate to Closegate".

The present Scotswood Road may follow the line of an earlier lane depicted as Maiden's Walk on Wood's map of 1827. This may have been a Roman road and was described as "an old footpath" by Charleton.
