Middle Street


Middle Street was a street in old Newcastle, which lay in-between the Cloth Market and Groat Market. The street was divided into three sections: Skinnergate at the top, Spurriergate in the middle, and Sadlergate at the bottom.[1] Middle Street was demolished during the redevelopment of Newcastle in the mid 19th Century.
