Elements of the main building can be traced back to the mid 18th Century and has, since the1750’s, been used as the dwelling house of local Merchants including (between 1821-1896) well known illustrator Joseph Crawhall and was the birthplace of his son (also Joseph) who later became famed as a technically brilliant water-colourist of animals and birds.

Since the turn of the 20th Century the site has been used as Morpeth Grammar School for Girls (early 1900’s to around 1973) and then various municipal buildings for Northumberland County Council including, of course, The Morpeth Registry Office.

Views are either over Newgate Street or the Garden areas – sometimes both. Our bungalows have been created to blend with both the Grade 2 listed building and the surrounding properties.
