Gates to Heathfield House, Gateshead
Heathfield House on Durham Road in the Low Fell area of the town was built in 1856. The house, including the imposing gates seen here, was designed by John Wardle, who also designed The Hancock Museum in Newcastle. Many wealthy industrialists built mansions in Low Fell in the middle of the 19th century, away from the crowded town centre.

St Helen, Low Fell
St Helen's, Low Fell, was consecrated in 1876 to serve a new parish and
built at the cost of Edward Joicey (colliery owner); this area was an
upcoming suburb where the wealthy industrialists and merchants of
Newcastle and Gateshead were building large houses. Today the area
appears little changed.
The church is in a "mature" churchyard (ie. you can't see it for
trees!) which, being an urban location and postdating the Burial Acts of
the middle of the 19th century, is not a burial ground. It is a very
well maintained and, I was told, well attended church.
It has four windows in the Nave by Morris & Co, three of them from
designs by Sir Edward Burne Jones.
