This building is now part of a sheltered housing complex called Mariners Court, but was previously the railway station for Tynemouth, opened in 1847. After the present station was built in 1882, it became a goods station until 1959. An indication of its former status are the shields above the doorway which show the coat of arms of Tynemouth.
