In the 1851 census, George Nelless (a farmer) and family lived at Tynemouth Mill, which was flanked on one side by the Master Marriners Asylumn Dwellings, Tynemouth Gate, and Percy Square (I know that's been replaced by The James Knott Flats) -
and on the other side by Spittal Dean Cottage, Spital Cottage, The Lodge, and Preston Lane Cottage.
In the 1861 Census, and those following, the family live at Spittal Dean Farm, where George farmed 72 acres & employed two farm workers
Would the Mill have been renamed, or a farmhouse built?
Are there any old maps or pictures of Tynemouth which might show this?
Thanks in anticipation
Liz

you could try the map at http://gis.durham.gov.uk/gis/
Choose North Shields and town, then you'll have to zoom out and choose the move icon to move the map over Tynemouth, at the bottom there is a drop down box where you can choose maps from 1856 to the presant and an aerial photo of 2001.
Hope this might help.
Regards
Rewcastle

According to the Victoria County History, Tynemouth Mill was burnt down in 1805 and the Tyne Mariners Asylum was erected on the site in 1929. The Millfield extended from the Spittal Dean eastward to Tynemouth village. It may be that the farmhouse adjoined the mill, and only the name changed.
