Description:
The building is first shown on the 1916 OS plan. The exact construction date and name of architect are unknown. The building has seen little change from its original layout as a large residential property, with the majority of later changes from its use by the University being superficial. A number of original features survive in good condition noteably in the entrance lobby and larger rooms on the ground floor. Architectually the building is a good example of the arts and crafts movement. The building is a rare survival in Newcastle.
