Abstract: |
Desk-based historic environment assessment ahead of a proposed development at Northumbria Police HQ, Ponteland. The central and central eastern parts of the current site were originally developed in the early 20th century as 'The Ponteland Cottage Homes', a complex erected by the Newcastle Board of Guardians to house orphans and children of very poor families away from the Union Workhouse on West Road in Newcastle. The assessment has established that the site contains eight designated heritage assets in the form of the Grade II Listed Buildings: Blocks 1-2; 3-4; 5-6; 7-8; 9-10; 11-12; 13 and; 27, all surviving from the Ponteland Cottage Homes complex. The assessment has also identified eleven non-designated heritage assets at the study site, which, although not included on the County Historic Environment Record, were also structural components of the Cottage Homes complex. Of these, ten comprise extant structures: Block 14-15; a sundial associated with Block 14-15; Block 17; Block 18-19; Block 20-2; the former farm manager's house; the two former school houses and; two outbuildings. Unlisted, these assets are considered to be of low significance, of historical/architectural importance at a local level, but certainly offering a contribution to the overall group value of the complex. |
