This passageway leads to Waleric House along with Northumberland Mews, Pilot's Rest and Pilot's Cottage. The Norman Baron of Alnwick laid out a new town in the early 12th century and called it Saint Waleric after the saint to whom the church was dedicated. The name Waleric House is therefore a nod to this very distant past.
