Hawthorn is a village in County Durham, England. It is situated between Seaham and Easington.
The only noticeable location in the village of Hawthorn is the Staplyton Arms, a small public house situated in roughly the centre of the village.
Close by Hawthorn Dene's mouth, there was until the late 1970s, a large Gothic Revival house, named "Hawthorn Towers" once the family home of Major Anderson, who was connected with the Building of the Middlesbrough Transporter Bridge.
