In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described New Heaton like this:
HEATON (NEW), a hamlet on the N border of Northumberland; near the rivers Tweed and Till and the Northeastern railway, 2 miles ENE of Cornhill. Heaton Castle here, now a ruined square fortalice, belonged, in the time of Edward I., to William de Eton; passed to the Greys, and to Earl Tankerville; and was besieged in vain, in 1513, by the Scots, on their way to Flodden.
