The market town of Yarm sits on a pronounced meander of the River Tees in the borough of Stockton-on-Tees, within ceremonial North Yorkshire. It grew up around a medieval market and is noted for its attractive High Street of Georgian and earlier buildings, framed by the old stone Yarm Bridge and the striking red‑brick railway Yarm Viaduct.
Today Yarm is a prosperous commuter and retail centre with independent shops, cafés and riverside pubs, popular for waterside walks, local markets and community events. While well connected to neighbouring Teesside and Durham, it retains a village‑like feel and a strong sense of historic character that draws visitors as well as residents.
