St Hilda's Church, Not only is St Hilda's a beautiful church, it also represents the whole of the Headland and tells the story of the town within its walls.
19th Century Cannon
Situated in Hartlepool's Headland keeping a watchful eye looking out to sea, the cannon was captured from the Russian Army at the siege of Sebastopol during the Crimean War and presented to the town by Lord Panmore in 1857.
The Town Wall
Still in existence today guarding the Headland, built to keep out raiding Scots in the 14th century. Some parts of the wall date back to that period including the historic Sandwell Gate which can still be seen - it is over 8ft thick at this point.
Both of these are well worth a look!
Golf
Seaton Carew has just got a blue flag award: A splendid promenade connects the Marina with one of the Victorian's favourite North-East resorts. Seaton Carew with its miles of broad golden sands and safe sheltered bathing is still the perfect venue for a traditional family day out at the seaside. Enjoy good flat beaches to fly kites and build castles, rock pools to hunt shrimps and amusement arcades that flicker and sing - Seaton Carew is well worth visiting when you stay in Hartlepool.
Pizza hut, Macdonalds, Burger king, KFC, Cinema Town center for shopping.
