Hemlington
Hemlington has Middlesbrough in the background and the North York Moors National Park on its horizon. It’s a self-contained suburb with its own community feel, its own amenities and with the excellent back-up of Middlesbrough for town centre shopping, leisure and entertainment. Three key routes on three sides make it a popular location for commuting to work, and the National Park, covering 554 square miles and including 26 miles of coastline, is the local landmark for your new home.

On the go
Hemlington is framed by the A19, A174 and A172. These main routes head into Middlesbrough and Stockton-on-Tees, connecting York, Thirsk, Redcar, Saltburn-by-the-Sea and Whitby, with these main focal points for the county’s business, industry and employment. If you need to travel further afield, you can join the A66(M) and the A1(M) just the other side of Darlington, 20 miles to the west. You can get a train into Middlesbrough from Nunthorpe, 3 miles away, taking less than 15 minutes so a really good option if you work in the town centre. Stagecoach operates the public bus services, making it easy to get to the neighbouring areas of Coulby Newham and Stainton as well as into Middlesbrough. Teesside International Airport is just 11 miles to the west, taking around 20 minutes by car via the A66.
