Startforth County Durham Map

About Startforth

Startforth, a quiet presence in County Durham, hums with the subtle energy of a place that has seen generations pass. It lies 1.5 km south-west of Barnard Castle (from Barnard Castle: bearing 228°T, OS grid NZ 043 160), and is situated north-west of Lendings village. The land here rolls with a gentle, almost imperceptible gradient, the sky often a broad canvas of shifting greys and blues that seem to lend a particular clarity to the surrounding fields. Though its origins are ancient, Startforth carries a practical air, its houses arranged with a sense of purpose that speaks of its agricultural past. The River Tees, a silver thread in the distance, has long shaped the landscape and the lives of those who have called Startforth home.
