Thorpe Larches is a small hamlet in County Durham in North East England, situated between Sedgefield and Stockton-on-Tees.
There are approximately 21 buildings (19 of which are houses). There are no larger buildings (e.g. a village hall). There are around 60 residents.
There are no streets; there are only several lanes branching off of the road A177. The A177 has a speed limit of 60mph through Thorpe Larches, although many residents believe that this should be reduced due to cars unexpectedly turning off the road into the hard-to-see lanes.
There are no major bodies of water (e.g. lakes, rivers, large ponds). Consequently, there are no locations in which one can fish.
There are no major businesses - only a small costume store and a packaging warehouse.
