Description
"See [[4286484]]. Following the dissolution of the monasteries in 1539 the former friary buildings were kept as a base for Henry VIII’s Council of the North and became known as the King’s Manor. The tower was added to the manor at this time to provide security for the soldiers based there. For further info, see http://www.newcastlegateshead.com/things-to-do/holy-jesus-hospital-p519441 ."
