-
Description
"Painter Heugh is an old lane of medieval Newcastle which used to connect the lower part of Dean Street with the higher parts of Pilgrim Street to the east. Its line is now broken by the multi-storey car park, the railway viaducts and the busy road approaches to the Tyne Bridge. The pedestrian route is continued by [[1673710]] Its name is thought to be derived from ships tied up here in the tidal parts of the Lort Burn below Low Bridge [[2133385]] before it was filled in to build Dean Street http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=43337" Photo by Andrew Curtis, 2010. -
