Sadberge (/ˈsædbɜːrdʒ/) is a village in County Durham, England, situated between Darlington and Stockton-on-Tees.
The origin of the name is reflective of the area's high Viking-influence.
[2] Placenames with the same root also appear in other Viking-influenced areas, including the village of Sedbergh in the West Riding of Yorkshire (now administered as part of Cumbria).
The wapentake of Sadberge, a manor and liberty named after the village, was a liberty of Northumberland until purchased by the Bishop of Durham in 1189 and gradually incorporated into his County Palatine of Durham.
[3] Sadberge is conveniently situated for fast commuting to Teesside.
