Why Greenside is different from the rest of Gateshead

Greenside is a rural pocket inside Gateshead, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Gateshead job. We plan around outbuilding rooflines and exposed weather-facing elevations. That's why this page exists separately to ourGateshead page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
