- Description
-
Standing proud over Hexham's Market Place, this gatehouse defended access into the fortified area from the Market Place (seen in gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=3613). An early 15th century gatehouse it is four-storey high with a three storey tower attached. The staircase visible on the outside of the building led to what was once a courtroom until 1838. Above this was a hall. The fortifications were built as defence against raiding from Scotland as late as 1640. The Moot Hall is a Grade I Listed Building.
