Description: | Sheriff Hill Hall was built about 1827 or 1828, for Matthew Plummer, after the enclosure of Gateshead Fell in 1822. He had acquired many allotments on Gateshead Fell. The family lived in the Hall for 46 years. The Rev. Matthew Plummer, a member of this family, became curate of St. Mary’s, Heworth in 1831. He was known to be a cultured man. In 1834, when Heworth became a parish in its own right instead of a Chapelry attached to Jarrow parish, Matthew Plummer became the first Vicar of the Parish of Heworth. He remained at Heworth for 46 years in all. The Hall was demolished in 1969. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.asaplive.com/Lco/Lco.cfm?ccs=629&cs=2674&Preview=1 | Publisher: | Gateshead Council | Rights holder: | Gateshead Council | Subjects: | Industrialists Large Houses | Temporal: | name=1960s; start=1960; end=1969; | Source: | iSee Gateshead | Creator: | Manders, Frank | Identifier: | http://isee.gateshead.gov.uk/detail.php?... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
