A series of Tyneside-style flats (ground floor and first floor) which look like houses from the street. Has two storey, curved bay windows, some with stained glass typical of the 1930s. The rear of the terrace is remarkably unaltered with a series of two-storey off-shots.

When viewed from the road this is a single storey, brick built terrace not dissimilar to Sunderland Cottages and to Oakfield Terrace in Gosforth. The terrace has been altered considerably through the addition of rooflights, alteration of window patterns and materials, roofs from slate to tiled, and the use of render. When viewed from the rear, this is a three storey terrace with a variety of balconies and terraces at first floor. Long gardens slope away from beneath the first floor to garages on the river terrace. Unusual deceptive appearance. To the south are four large semi-detached houses built in the late 1930s, double fronted with curved bay windows.

On the south side of Armstrong Bridge is Armstrong Park, which is on the wooded east bank of the Dene. Paths lead through woodland with views of the Ouse Burn to the west. The area is marked Bulman Woods on the 1859-64 OS map. Bridges carry the paths over a sunken walkway of 1880, c400m south of Armstrong Bridge, which may have been constructed to give cattle access to the river. A stone well head called King John's Well lies alongside the westernmost path c250m south of the bridge. The remains of a 18th century windmill (listed grade II), which is shown on an engraving of 1743, stand on a grassed area overlooking the wooded banks of the Dene c450m south-east of the bridge, and there are tennis courts c80m to the west of the mill which were added in the mid C20. Armstrong Park is divided from Heaton Park to the south by Jesmond Vale Road. This area was acquired by the Corporation in 1878 before which time it had been the ground of Heaton Hall. Winding paths lead around the wooded perimeter, and in the central area there is a late 19th century pavilion with a balustraded terrace overlooking bowling greens, shown on the 1898 OS map, in an area which is shown as a kitchen garden on the 1872 OS map. The land rises to the south, and paths radiate from a mound at the top of the slope close to the centre of the southern boundary which was the site of a 18th century garden temple removed in the early C20….. In the north-east corner of the park are the remains of a C12 tower house (listed grade II) called King John's Palace (also known as Adam of Jesmond's Camera). The north-west side of the park was the site of a bearpit, which was infilled in 1891. The 1859-64 OS map shows that the pattern of planting in Heaton Park has changed little with the exception of the Hall (erected c1713, demolished mid C20) and its immediate surroundings which lay south-east of the present park boundary in an area which has been built over and is outside the registered area. A lake which is shown c100m north-east of the temple was drained in the mid C20. It is possible that the grounds were laid out by Richard Woods (c1716-93) for Matthew White Ridley during the 1760s as there was contact between Woods' foreman and the Ridley family at that time {1}.

Northumberland County Cricket Club acquired the Osborne Avenue Ground of nearly 3.5 acres in 1897 for around £7000. The club had been formed in 1881 but did not have a ground of its own. Home matches were played at Gosforth (South Northumberland), Tynemouth (Preston Lane) and Heaton Lane. A quaint replica timber Swiss chalet from the Royal Jubilee Mining, Engineering and Industrial Exhibition of 1887 was moved to the cricket ground from the Town Moor to become a pavilion. At that time the cricket ground was being used by the local police and was known as the Constabulary Ground. In 1947 the pitch had been levelled. £7000 was spent on a viewing lounge next to the pavilion and on concreting and seating the banks lining the perimeter. The Swiss chalet was replaced in 1963 by a purpose-built rectangular brick and timber clad pavilion. It was designed by LJ Couves & Partners, whose founder played for Northumberland in the 1920s. The pavilion cost £25,000. The scoreboard was designed by William Ainsworth in 1977. In 2003 the ground's future looked uncertain when Northumberland County Cricket Club announced that it was leave in 2004. However in 2006 a newly formed club, Newcastle Cricket Club established itself there. The ground's lease was taken over by the Royal Grammar School. The ground has twice been voted the North East Premier League's Ground of the Year. The scoreboard was adapted to house a digital display system in 2008.

Guards the entrance to Portland bowling green off Hutton Terrace. It is very dainty with ornate barge boards, reminiscent of a railway cottage, with a pretty flowering garden enclosed by low picket fencing. The bowling green is hidden from view by a green timber fence. This is a very lush and peaceful location.

A converted late Victorian villa with mid C20 full width flat roof dormer.

Pre 1844 villas integrated into the 1960s Swallow Hotel. Shown as the Imperial Hotel on OS third edition map of 1919. The 1960s building is an uninspiring modern development with an imposing, box-like cantilevered structure protruding over the street line. Damaged by fire in 2008.

The picturesque lodge house of the former Jesmond Field House (HER 10060) survives within the grounds of Granville Court (HER 9896) at the junction of Fernwood Road. Has a decorative slare roof and pretty door canopy.

Set in the grounds of the Mansion House (HER 9898) is Clayton Cottage, a modest red brick Queen Anne style dwelling.

Designated in 1987. South Jesmond is made up of late Victorian residential property set in a mature landscape. Major open spaces include All Saints Cemetery (HER 5232), Jesmond Old Cemetery (HER 5007) and the County Cricket Ground. From 1741 to 1821, the Warwick family owned the land that now includes the Conservation Area. After the Warwick family went bankrupt in 1821, Thomas Burdon purchased the northern section and James Archbold and others, purchased the southerly portion. There were two principal routes through the area, now known as Jesmond Road and Sandyford Road. Osborne Avenue, Osborne Road, Clayton Road, Fernwood Road, Akenside Terrace, Granville Road and Jesmond Road north side form a large and prestigious Victorian residential development constructed predominently between 1858 and 1898. Pears Archbold (nephew of James) built much of Osborne Road, Portland Terrace, Osborne Terrace, Hutton Terrace, Percy Terrace, Akenside Terrace and the villas on Clayton Road between 1863 and 1875. During the mid C19 this part of Jesmond became the home of shipbuilders, shipowners and other captains of industry (such as T.H. Bainbridge of the department store and G.B. Hunter of Swan Hunter shipbuilders). Burdon Place (four red brick terrace houses, with long front gardens and a handsome boundary wall with recessed panels) was built on land owned by Sir Thomas Burdon and advertised for sale in 1811. The semi detached Jesmond Villas is now subsumed in the Swallow Hotel complex. This subarea is characterised by large mid to late Victorian houses, detached, semi-detached and terraced in a mixture of architectural styles, materials and detailing.Osborne Avenue is a leafy residential street with two Victorian terraces on the north side and large semi-detached Victorian villas (Osborne Villas) and modern infill on the south side. A grade 2 listed pillar-box (HER 4635) lies north of No. 4 Osborne Villas. Osborne Court (HER 9899) is an Art Deco style apartment block adjacent to the County Cricket Ground. No. 8 Osborne Road, a detached white glazed brick Victorian villa, is now a children's nursery. No. 7 Fernwood Road is a red brick Victorian villa with a number of eclectic extensions. Clayton Road, Fernwood Road and Granville Road are characterised by large detached and semi-detached Victorian villas in sandstone or buff brick with Italianate style or restrained classical elevations, or later red brick Queen Anne style. Most of these family homes are now commercial properties. Pears Archbold was responsible for constructing Portland Terrace, Hutton Terrace, Percy Terrace and Osborne Terrace between 1863 and 1875.
