About

Horsley Hill is a residential area located on elevated ground overlooking the South Shields coastline. The streets are primarily made up of terraced and semi-detached housing, with local shops and services concentrated along Horsley Hill Road. The area provides direct access to the expansive South Marine Park and its boating lake below.

The slope of the land offers clear views across the mouth of the River Tyne and out to the North Sea. A prominent local feature is the remaining castellated turret of the old Horsley Hill House, which stands as a solitary landmark amidst the modern housing. The area is well-connected by major bus routes running into South Shields town centre.
