Thank you, a much clearer image and interesting update about its subsequent use. William Allan wine and spirit merchants were at 4 Prudhoe Place Newcastle now long gone and built over.

On the night of September 2nd 1942 a bomb fell on Glebe Row in Bedlington damaging one of the cottages. In 1861 Mary Ewart (b 1837) lived in 11 Glebe row and married Robert Wilkinson. There are Ewarts in our family tree but I have not found a link so probably coincidence.
