Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Tuthill Stairs Following the old practice of narrow closes and stairways connecting Newcastle's Quayside with the higher land north of the Tyne, Tuthill Stairs is now a modern connection between Close and Clavering Place providing a passage between the new apartment blocks west of the High Level Bridge. It follows, however, the line of one of Newcastle's Medieval narrow streets, an alley or chare in the local dialect Chare

The redevelopment here, called Quayside Lofts, was by Conran & Partners in 2007 http://www.conranandpartners.com/architecture-selected_project/17/work-quayside_lofts/# The brick and glass frontage of one of the apartment buildings is on the left of the following photo 1159548

You can look down between these modern buildings and the aligned north entrance to Bridge Court (over which a double-level glass walkway connects the flanking office blocks 1828275) to get a fleeting glimpse of the river with the tall flats of Gateshead beyond.
