The reference for this is Newcastle Council Reports, 1884-5, p.liv-lv, but no date for the building is given.

There is also an obituary in Newcastle Journal, 30 September 1884, but it is too fragile to be produced. | Building Type ClassificationThe building is classified under the following categories: | | Classification | Original classification? | Notes | | Town hall | | |
