Two well-built tunnels under Jesmond Dene Road which gave pedestrian access to the Banqueting Hall from Armstrong's house (Jesmond Dean - now demolished). One was for Armstrong's personal use, the other for the public. There is also a substantial retaining wall with an arch in it on the banqueting hall side of the tunnel. LOCAL LIST
