The reference for this is Newcastle Council Reports, 1884-5, p.liv-lv, but no date for the building is given. This fits with the number of Town Halls he designed, but it is not confirmed by the obituary in Newcastle Daily Chronicle, 30 September 1884, p.3. There is also an obituary in Newcastle Journal, 30 September 1884, but it is too fragile to be produced.
