Grangetown, Sunderland

Grangetown is a suburb of the City of Sunderland, in Tyne and Wear, England. Grangetown, which is an area within the Hendon Metropolitan District, was part of the Sunderland South parliamentary constituency for elections to the House of Commons of the United Kingdom, but in 2010 was made a ward of the new Sunderland Central parliamentary constituency.

Primarily consisting of low-rise suburbs, it borders the North Sea on its east side, and Leechmere Industrial Estate on its West side. It is approximately 2 kilometres south of Sunderland City Centre. Notable sites in Grangetown include Hendon Beach, which is between Grangetown and Hendon and the Sunderland Eye Infirmary, the only eye infirmary in Sunderland. However, a new eye infirmary is being built in the City Centre, so there will be two eye infirmaries in Sunderland.
