This book pays homage to several recognizable landmarks, including Paddy Freemans Park, which offers convenient access to Jesmond Dene, and the renowned Freeman Hospital, which is globally recognized. In the nearby area, Cochrane Park emerged as a highly sought-after residential estate after the demolition of two 18th-century mansions in expansive grounds. At Benton, an older village, pockets of smaller residential estates have coexisted alongside earlier listed buildings that have been repurposed for modern purposes. To assist the reader in understanding the extent of development in this region and appreciating the numerous historic elements that have been preserved, this book is extensively illustrated with photographs, maps, and aerial views.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781739223311\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alan Morgan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44526011547898,"sku":"9781739223311","price":11.42,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1692378213829_book.jpg?v=1693393308","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/high-heaton-cochrane-park-benton-how-we-used-to-live-9781739223311","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
