Background

History

The earliest historical reference to Jesmond as a site of residence dates to the late 12th century. Jesmond, then little more than a village, was under the rule and protection of the barony of Ellingham. Jesmond Vale was primarily an agricultural area until the middle of the 19th Century. In 1846, the township had amassed a population of 386 people. During this time the town transitioned from an agricultural economy to industry, and the city center consisted largely of closely packed terrace houses.
