Westgate Hill Terrace, Newcastle upon Tyne

Image: © Geoff Holland Taken: 27 May 2025

This attractive short terrace, which dates from about 1840, is just 5 houses long (Numbers 9 to 17), drops slightly in gradient and each house has only a small garden as they all have a detached garden across the street. The stone pavement flags are attractively worn and the new sett splays at each end are neat. The views are short and restricted with the eye particularly drawn towards the irregular and larger backs of Summerhill Terrace.
