LOCAL AREA

Heighington Village

​

Heighington Village has a rich history, with evidence suggesting that a settlement has existed there since around 400 AD. The name "Heighington" likely has Anglo-Saxon origins, indicating the village's long-standing presence in the region.

​

The village is noted in the Boldon Book of 1183, the northern equivalent of the Domesday Book. This historical record emphasizes Heighington's significance during that period.

​

For many years, the village's life revolved around the village green. A wall and gate once enclosed this central area, providing protection for the residents and their grazing animals, highlighting the village's focus on community safety and agricultural practices.
