About

Hart ward covers the central and western neighbourhoods of Hartlepool, including the Headland area. This historic peninsula forms the original settlement of the town, characterised by its tight-knit residential streets and independent local businesses. The area is defined by its coastal position, with the North Sea on three sides, influencing daily life.

A prominent feature is the navigational lighthouse, which has operated since the 1840s. The ward includes St Hilda's Church and the remains of the 12th-century Augustinian priory. The Heugh Breakwater and a long promenade provide direct access to the coastline. Community life is centred around local amenities, including the Borough Hall and the Headland's traditional high street.
