No.5 Ravensworth Terrace

No.5 Ravensworth Terrace, Beamish Museum, Co.Durham

No. 5 is presented as a solicitor’s office, based on that of Robert Spence Watson, a Quaker from Newcastle. Reflecting the trade of the era, downstairs is laid out as the partner’s or principal office, and the general or clerk’s office in the rear. Included is a set of books sourced from ER Hanby Holmes, who practised in Barnard Castle.
