About

Harraton, Rickleton and Fatfield sit on the north bank of the River Wear to the west of Sunderland city centre, forming a cluster of neighbourhoods within the City of Sunderland authority. Housing ranges from post-war estates to older terraces. Local facilities include primary schools, small parades of shops, community centres and playing fields. The river shapes much everyday movement: footpaths and riverside routes run along the Wear and the A182 crosses the water at Fatfield Bridge, which marks a clear link between the neighbourhoods and routes to nearby towns.

The area keeps traces of its mining past in street names, former colliery sites and pitches used by local teams. Pockets of green land and allotments sit between housing clusters, and anglers and walkers use stretches of riverbank where the Wear bends sharply at Fatfield. Community groups run clubs and events from halls and sports grounds, and local volunteers look after pocket parks and river paths that connect the neighbourhoods.
