What is recorded here
Kensington Terrace holds a University of Newcastle faculty building where the name suggests Newcastle but the location points to Scottish Borders. That contradiction creates a ghost address, a room in two worlds at once. Perhaps a student once misread the label and walked into the wrong county, carrying books and ambition across the border. The building still stands as a trap for maps, waiting for someone honest enough to ask which place it truly belongs to.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Tyne and Wear, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Kensington Terrace, University of Newcastle as Faculty Building (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
