32, Close (The Cooperage) - Newcastle upon Tyne

One of a group of late-medieval buildings on the Newcastle upon Tyne waterfront. Sandstone ground floor, supporting timber-framed upper floors. Gabled front of one bay and three storeys, with jettied first and second floors. Originally a merchant house and more recently a public house and restaurant. The building is vacant but secured and largely watertight. Discussions on potential long-term uses are underway. Project development work is required to inform these discussions and future proposals.
