              Underbridge which carried the Station Approach from the east end of the former Harold Street beneath the Newcastle and Carlisle line as it approached Scotswood Bridge. Its supporting walls are of massive snecked rough-faced stone, with an ashlar band, hollow-chamfered on its lower angle, immediately below the cast-iron superstructure. The superstructure of the bridge has a series of four rectangular panels on each face each with a raised border with inturned quadrants at the corners
