Carlton is a residential suburb of Stockton-on-Tees in north‑east England, forming part of the broader Teesside urban area. It sits close to the River Tees and the town centre, and is characterised by a mix of post‑war housing, local shops and pockets of green space that give it a quiet, suburban feel.

Historically the neighbourhood grew with the industrial expansion of the Teesside area in the 19th and 20th centuries and still reflects a strong working‑class heritage, while the local economy is now more service and retail oriented. Community life tends to centre on primary schools, community centres and parks, with straightforward road links into the wider Tees Valley and nearby towns.
