Piercebridge is a village and civil parish in the borough of Darlington and the ceremonial county of Durham, England. It is situated a few miles west of the town of Darlington. The village sits on the site of a Roman fort dating from 260–270 CE, built where Dere Street crossed the River Tees. Part of the fort is now under the village green, and the historic Roman road, known as Dere Street, still marks the route from York to Newstead. The settlement’s character is shaped by its historical roots and its proximity to the Tees, giving it a distinct sense of place within the rural landscape of County Durham. The local community benefits from the village’s heritage and its close links to the nearby town of Darlington for services and amenities.
