Map of the UK

Elwick is a small rural village and civil parish in the borough of Hartlepool, in County Durham, lying a few miles inland from the North Sea coast to the west of the town. It retains a compact village green and a traditional parish feel, with surrounding farmland and easy road links (notably the nearby A19) making it a popular commuter base for people working on Teesside.

Historically the village has medieval roots reflected in its parish church and some older stone buildings, and community life tends to centre on the village hall and local events. Economically the area mixes agriculture with residents who commute to neighbouring industrial and service centres, so it feels quietly rural while remaining well connected to the wider Hartlepool/Teesside economy.
