Plaque, Central Station, Newcastle
Station desigend by John Dobson (1787-1865)
1847-50
Dobson, who was a friend of J. W. M. Turner, William Holman Hunt, and others, worked in the neo-classical tradition. This is considered to be his most important public work, although he also made a major contribution to the redevelopment of central Newcastle [JB].
