Description
The Priory of St Dominic is a Roman Catholic priory located on New Bridge Street in Newcastle upon Tyne, founded in 1887 by the architectural firm Dunn and Hansom. The building is constructed of Flemish bond brick with terra cotta dressings and features a Welsh slate roof, all designed in the Gothic style. It has two storeys and consists of four bays.
The porch, located in the third bay, has a pent roof and contains a half-glazed door flanked by side lights and an overlight, all featuring glazing bars and coloured glass. The windows throughout the building include cusped designs with two, three, and four lights, as well as lancets on the sides of the canted second bay. Notable architectural details include spiral-stopped drip moulds, sloping sills, and moulded surrounds for all windows. The first floor has sill and lintel strings, with the lintels adorned with mask decorations. The steeply pitched roofs are finished with roll-moulded eaves coping, and the canted bay is topped with an octagonal roof. The building also features conjoined and corniced octagonal brick chimneys at the ends and rear.
