This little enclave is at the eastern end of Wallsend. It takes its name from an old hall which stood here until the 1930's. The houses were built for the workers of the nearby Wallsend Slipway & Engineering Company in the late 19th century. The end of the terrace was chopped off in the late 20th century when Hadrian Road was built through the area.
