Sherburn Village is a small village and civil parish in County Durham, England, set on the edge of the old Durham coalfield and within easy reach of the city of Durham. The landscape around the village mixes farmland, hedged lanes and pockets of suburban housing, with good road links that make it a popular spot for commuters while still feeling distinctly rural on its quieter streets.

Historically the settlement expanded in the 19th century with ties to coal and local industry, and you can still see Victorian terraces and other reminders of that past alongside more modern housing. Today Sherburn Village has a strong community feel, with a village hall, local shops and pubs, active community groups and nearby walking routes that attract families and people who want a balance of countryside and access to regional centres.
