What's on in Harrowgate Village

Harrowgate Village sits quietly in Durham where the hills are steep enough to make a good run of them but gentle enough for a brisk walk with the kids. We keep our eyes peeled for local craft markets that usually pop up near the high street and open air theatre seasons that turn the park into a proper stage. It is rare to find a place this settled without a bit of noise and colour on offer, yet here it is in spades. The community centre hosts family days that make toddlers forget they are tired and school groups find plenty of room to stretch their legs. Even on a rainy Tuesday you can catch a film night or a book club meeting inside the library where the coffee is always hot enough to warm your hands. Near Here gathers these scattered bits of village life so you do not have to chase news from door to door like a lost sheep.
