Westfield Lodge. Newcastle Upon Tyne

Not all individual houses are named on 6ins to mile maps.

Add - I mention the hospital.and workhouse because  the nurses home would be close by.

[Gadget]

If you do an address search on the 1939 Register, Westfield Lodge is listed with a map link.

It looks like a private house rather than a nurses home though.  However, further along (west oakwood) there is a nursing home, which seems to list a lot of nurses.

West Oakwood is mentioned on the electoral roll.

If Chris does an address search on the 1939 register, as I suggested, Westfield Lodge will be shown.

(Sorry we can't give this type of detail on the 1939)

This doesn't help with the location of Westfield Lodge, but may be of interest. This is a transcript of the beginning of a long article in the 20 December 1930 edition of the Newcastle Evening Chronicle:

2,000 HAPPY GLOOPERS THINK OF OTHERS.

Three £50 Cheques Given To Children's Hospitals.

MEMORABLE GATHERING IN NEWCASTLE.

UNPRECEDENTED scenes of joy, and enthusiasm marked the great Gloopege attended by 2,000 Gloopers in the City Hall, Newcastle, last night, when Uncle Nick led the fun in a gathering which will be a treasured memory by those who took part in it. The evening, was crowned, amid all the rejoicing, in its seasonable thought for the less fortunate, by the presentation of three £50 cheques, subscribed by Gloopers, to children's hospitals. Another big feature was the presentation of Medals of Honour to 200 Gloopers.

Among the list of the the 200 Gloopers who received the Medal of Honour is:

Ruby Thompson, No. 133210, Westfield Lodge, Westgate Road, Newcastle

On the 1907 map revision Westfield is semi-detatched with South View.  Was Westfield Lodge the smaller building behind Westfield, against the road?  (These large houses all faced south, away from the road.)
On the edition revised to 1967 South View is still there and Westfield has been much enlarged to become Westfield Club.  The smaller building is now named Westfield Cottage.

Here's the area on the biggest scale OS map that I can see on the Edinburgh site

I've focused  on  Ravenswood as that is close by.

I've added a side-by-side view to the map linked by Gadget:

The two semi-detached houses immediately to the west of Ravenswood seem to still be there. The house to the west is labelled South View on MollyC's linked map, while the house to the east seems to be embedded in the Westfield Social Club. Look carefully on the satellite image and you can make out the roofs and the general plan of the two houses.

If you are a streetview user, go to the south end of Auden Grove and look across Westgate Road where you will see the roofs of the two houses with a central stack of chimneys standing out above the two storey flat-roofed Social Club. And if you go into the side lane between the church and the Gulf Western petrol station you can get a side view of South View.

It doesn't really give any more info than the 25 ins one.

My eyes are going squiffy now!!

PS -if you can find it still standing. I can pop up and take a pic

It is actually a 120 inch (plus a bit) plan, usually referred to as a "ten-foot" plan.
They do show good detail in gardens.  It seems as though the roadside wall had once been Hadrian's Wall.

I've been going squiffy looking for a five-foot plan of Newcastle (1:1056), which should be around the 1850s and concluded it is not on NLS national index of town plans.  So either it was not published, or NLS does not have a set for some reason.
