Houghton-le-Spring

An old pit town with a lot of green to keep

Houghton-le-Spring was a colliery town for more than 150 years. The pit sank its first shaft in 1823 and closed in 1981. The colliery is gone now, but the town it built still has plenty of grass, hedges and open ground that somebody has to keep.

It is a town that looks after its history. Rectory Park was the garden of the Old Rectory until it opened to the public in the 1940s, and the Hillside Cemetery beside the Houghton Cut began life as a quarry before it was consecrated in 1854. Houghton Feast still runs for ten days every October, and it goes back to the 12th century.

Houghton is in the City of Sunderland rather than County Durham, so public land here is Sunderland City Council's. We work for everyone else with grounds to keep, from Sacriston, about six and a half miles west of the town.

Who we work for in Houghton

Estates, burial grounds, businesses and homes

Grounds in Houghton are kept by a mix of owners. Each one gets a schedule written for its own site.

apartment Managing agents and housing Communal lawns and long boundary hedges round blocks and estates, cut and edged to the frequency the service charge is paying for.
nature Cemeteries and memorial grounds Grass kept tidy between the rows and hedges kept in check, with the quiet and care a burial ground needs. Cemeteries are one of the kinds of site we are set up for.
business Businesses and commercial units Frontages, verges and planted borders at shops, offices and units, so the grounds look cared for when a customer pulls in.
home Homeowners Grass cutting, hedge trimming, full garden tidy ups and turfing for houses across the town. Domestic work sits alongside the commercial contracts.

FAQs

Houghton-le-Spring questions

If you need to know something else, just ask.

Houghton is in Sunderland, not County Durham. Is that a problem?expand_more
Not at all. Houghton-le-Spring comes under Sunderland City Council, but we cover it the same as anywhere in County Durham.
Do you look after cemeteries and churchyards?expand_more
Yes. Cemeteries are one of the site types we work on. Grass and hedges are kept tidy with care around graves and memorials, and the visits are set to suit the site.
Our hedges are long and overgrown. When can you cut them?expand_more
Autumn and winter, once the nesting season is over. Active nests are protected by law, so a big cut back is planned for then. If a path or a sightline has to be cleared sooner for safety, the hedge is checked for nests first.
How often would you visit?expand_more
It changes through the year rather than staying fixed. Fortnightly from the first cut in spring, moving to every seven to ten days through peak growth in June and July, then easing off into autumn. The schedule is agreed and written down before the first visit.
Who would we be dealing with?expand_more
Reggie Tribuisis, the director. He provides direct oversight on every contract.
