David AllanThis is the Ouse Burn, which gives the 'Ouseburn' area of Newcastle its name, flowing down from Jesmond Dene, this final stretch of the burn making its way past large Grade II listed 19th century industrial buildings, on its way to join the River Tyne.
The original stone building in the foreground was designed by John Dobson and opened in 1848 as a steam powered flax mill, making linen and sail cloth.
Ten years later, the buildings were owned by Procter and Sons, who
used them as a flour mill.
All the raw materials and finished products came and went by the Ouse Burn in keels and wherries (hoists and loading bays can still be seen).
