Lascelles
Lascelles Park is a large estate located in the East of Darlington. It is an attractive place for families to live with 3 primary schools all being within walking distance.
At the heart of Lascelles is Eastbourne Park which has Eastbourne Community Hub operating from its community centre building. Launched in 2018 the hub has been refurbished from the old bowling pavilion and is run by volunteers who care about where they live and want to make a difference to its residents. It delivers services to local people including a café, lunch club, coffee mornings, and seasonal activities.
Eastbourne Park provides an ideal start and end place for local walking and cycling routes and has a popular dog walking community using the park as well as a play park used by children of all ages.
Local shops, eateries, and supermarkets are all close by.
Lascelles is situated approximately 2 kilometres from Darlington town centre with a regular bus service available as well as excellent transport links including the A1M, East Coast Mainline, and Durham Tees Valley Airport.
As well as a good selection of family housing one of our extra care properties is situated in the Lascelles area.
