Harrowgate Hill

Harrowgate Hill is a residential ward located in the southeastern part of Darlington, primarily situated on rising ground above the River Skerne. The area is characterised by a mix of housing types, from terraced streets to semi-detached and detached homes built across different decades. Its layout includes several local shopping parades catering to daily needs, with the main thoroughfares being Haughton Road and Neasham Road, which provide key transport links into the town centre.

The ward contains several green spaces, including the grounds of the former Hurworth House and the playing fields at Eastbourne Sports Complex. A notable local feature is the Hurworth Burn reservoir, which lies just to the east and influences the area's topography. Educational facilities, such as schools and a campus of Darlington College, are significant elements within the community, alongside various places of worship serving the local population.
