Housing developement in rear is called Ember Gardens ,

Why I say that a house on buts was for what I said is I visited said house couple of years ago , you can see from outside originally was three dwellings, I mentioned this and was told it was originally The customs house , Pilot and masters houses , for the harbour, as to when or true not sure but the river was navigable before dams etc put in dropping levels, so feasible that the buts could have been mooring unloading place . ???? Plus Sykes has reports of Boat trips from the Tyne To Warkworth ? in his local records books, remembering Warkworth was closest village to coast , In the Alnwick District Council "Warkworth
Conservation Area Character Appraisal" it actually states that >>>>>>Warkworth flourished in the medieval period as a harbour and market town. this is pre river course change ??


Medieval period, lasted from the 5th to the 15th century.
