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.
