This fine two storey house, close to Marden Quarry Park, was built, according to William Weaver Tomlinson in his 1893 book, 'Historical Notes on Cullercoats Whitley and Monkseaton', "by Mr. Thomas Taylor early in the century [19th]." It seems that Mr. Taylor was quick to move to pastures new as the property was, "in the Newcastle Courant of July 27th, 1816 advertised to be let ".
