Sedgefield

Sedgefield is a town and civil parish in County Durham, England. It had a population of 5,211 as at the 2011 census. Sedgefield was also known in the area because of Winterton Hospital. This was an isolation hospital and an asylum. The site was like a village itself with its own fire station, bank and cricket team. Today, little trace is left of the hospital, apart from the church, which is now surrounded by the Winterton housing estate and the NETPark Science park.

Sedgefield was home to the Tony Blair from 1997 to 2007 and it was replaced by Phil Wilson eventually after that.
