Description: | Axwell was originally a manor held from the Bishop of Durham by William de Birtley (13s 4d rent). It passed to various families including the Redheughs, Shaftos and Lumleys until in 1629 ‘the whole was re-united by purchase in John Clavering, alderman of Newcastle’. Axwell Hall was built for Sir Thomas Clavering (7th baronet) in 1758 to a design by James Paine in a similar style to Wardour Castle, Wiltshire. The Hall later became the Newcastle Boy’s Industrial school. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.asaplive.com/Lco/Lco.cfm?ccs=629&cs=2674&Preview=1 | Publisher: | Gateshead Council | Subjects: | Derwent Riverside Bridges Large Houses | Temporal: | name=Edwardian; start=1901; end=1910; | Source: | iSee Gateshead | Creator: | Unknown | Identifier: | http://isee.gateshead.gov.uk/detail.php?... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
