Fairfield was originally the site of a field which hosted a fair, hence its name. It is now a suburb of Stockton-on-Tees and by no means a village any more. It is one of Stockton's more pleasant locales in which to live, but is not as affluent as neighbouring Hartburn. The northern part of Fairfield is newer than the southern, and so is more affluent than the southern. Fairfield has a number of local amenities. There are several schools, namely Fairfield Infant School, Fairfield Junior School (adjoining), St Patrick's Roman Catholic Primary School and Ian Ramsey Church of England Secondary School. Next to Ian Ramsey School is Fairfield Library, the web address for which is: http://www.stockton.gov.uk/citizenservices/leisureandents/Libraries/Community_libraries/fairfield_library/ There is also a noteworthy pub called The Fairfield. This is next to the library. A green belt divides the suburb from neighbouring Green Vale and Hartburn to the south, while at the other, northerly end, Fairfield ends abruptly at the edge of the town. |
