Plummer Tower, off Croft Street
This is a building which incorporates one of the towers on the Newcastle's old Town Walls along with a short length of the wall itself (facing). It was built in late 12C-14C. The rest of the wall, both north and south of the tower was demolished in 1811.
Once called the Carliol Croft Tower, it served as an artillery position at the time of the Civil War. In the 17th century, it was named Cutlers' Tower, used by the Company of Cutlers as a meetings room. In 1749, it was let to the Company of Masons who built the new Palladian west front. They held it into the 20th century, after which it was intermittently used as a dwelling house.

Construction between Carliol Square and Market Street
Re-building following demolition of the rear part of Plummer House, the former Chapman's furniture store. The firm closed in 2012 after 165 years trading in the city, dating back to 1847 when the business was launched by Hedley Chapman. The replacement at the rear of the building near Carliol Square will be a 248-room block of student flats.

Plummer House, Market Street, Newcastle
Built in 1911 to the designs of Newcombe & Newcombe but broadly faithful to the style established by Richard Grainger, e.g. Image Grade II listed.
The retail space had been occupied by a furniture shop, Chapmans, but they had gone and the space was empty at the time of photo.
