Eastlea

England

Eastlea forms part of County Durham's former coalfield area, sitting just inland from Seaham on the northeast coast. Access is via the A19 to B1287, with local routes connecting neighbouring pit villages like Murton and Deneside. The area has over 250 EV charging points, reflecting its transition from industrial past to modern residential community. The preserved Pithead Baths building still stands as a reminder of the village's mining heritage.
