Corner Tower and Gardener?s cottage, City Road
The part of the town wall here was built after 1298 and is the last remains of the town wall on the east side.
The white-painted Gardener's Cottage was for the grounds of the halls of the Barber Surgeons who both practised as surgeons and earned extra money on the side by cutting people’s hair. The second hall on the site was demolished in 1851 to make way for the railway, running north from Central Station.

"At distance stands an ancient tower,
Which ruin threatens every hour;
I’m struck with reverence at the sight,
I pause and gaze with fond delight;
The antique walls do join the scene,
And makes more lovely Pandon Dean."
From Pandon Dean, a song published in Sept. 1776, under the Name of Rosalinda.

The Corner Tower, Newcastle City Walls
The blue plaque says that here there were two turrets at right angles to each other, because in the early 14th C the wall was turned east to enclose the newly acquired suburb of Pandon.
