Horsforth

Although the Teesside region is not renowned as a desirable area, Yarm and Ingleby Barwick are exceptions. Yarm is a Georgian market town with a stunning location on the River Tees and good shopping.

Ingleby Barwick is nearby and both have large proportions of skilled workers and homeowners.
