Map of the UK

Greatham is a small village in the borough of Hartlepool, in County Durham, in the North East of England. It still feels quite rural, tucked among farmland and hedgerows but only a short drive from the coast and the larger urban centres around Teesside, so it’s often chosen by people who want village life with easy commuting links.

The village has historic roots and a handful of older buildings alongside more modern homes, with a village hall and a quiet community life. Locally people enjoy country lanes, footpaths and the nearby Durham Heritage Coast, while employment and services are typically drawn from nearby towns and the industrial history of the Tees estuary.
