Welcome to Hedworth

Hedworth is a small village located in the metropolitan borough of South Tyneside, Tyne and Wear, England. The village is situated on the south bank of the River Tyne and is surrounded by the towns of Jarrow, Hebburn, and Bill Quay. Hedworth has a rich history dating back to the 12th century when it was known as Hethewrth.

Today, Hedworth is a quiet residential area with a population of around 3,000 people. The village has a range of amenities, including a primary school, a community centre, and a local pub.

Hedworth is well-connected to the rest of Tyne and Wear, with easy access to the A19 and A194(M) motorways.

Despite its small size, Hedworth has a strong sense of community, and residents take pride in their village. The Hedworth Lane Community Association organises a range of events throughout the year, including a summer fair and a Christmas market. The village also has a number of green spaces, including Hedworthfield Park, which is a popular spot for dog walkers and families. Overall, Hedworth is a charming village with a rich history and a strong community spirit.
