'''North Ormesby''' is a part of [[Middlesbrough]], [[North Yorkshire]], England. The area has gained the common nickname of Doggy, it is of unknown origin.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/teesside-news/nunthorpe-naughty-north-ormesby-known-12276182|title=So why IS Nunthorpe naughty and North Ormesby known as Doggy?|date=6 December 2016|accessdate=14 July 2021}}</ref> Population of the now former "North Ormesby and Brambles Farm" ward was 6,268, at the [[United Kingdom Census 2011|2011 census]], with [[Brambles Farm]] being south-east of the area.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadKeyFigures.do?a=7&b=13689977&c=TS3+6JG&d=14&e=62&g=6486147&i=1001x1003x1032x1004&m=0&r=0&s=1437578963085&enc=1|title=Middlesbrough ward population 2011|accessdate=22 July 2015}}</ref> The area became its own ward in 2015.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://findthatpostcode.uk/areas/E05001494.html|title=North Ormesby and Brambles Farm - E05001494 INACTIVE Ward|accessdate=13 July 2021}}</ref><br />

It is near the [[River Tees]]'s southern banks, with the [[A66 road]] and [[Teesdale Way]] (long-distance walking route) passing to the north of the area, the [[A171 road]] (Cargo Fleet Lane) to the east, the [[A1085 road]] (Longlands Road) to the south with the [[A172 road (England)|A172 road]] and [[Esk Valley Line]] to the west.<br />

==History==<br />
[[File:Holy Trinity, NORTH ORMESBY.jpg|thumb|Holy Trinity Church, a grade II [[listed building]] and its tower is an important local landmark<ref>{{NHLE|num=1139850|desc=Church of the Holy Trinity|access-date=31 May 2020}}</ref>]]<br />
Its name, as well as those of various streets in the locality, alludes to the support given to the initial construction of North Ormesby, a new town, in the later 19th century by members of the nearby [[Ormesby]]-based [[Ormesby Hall|Pennyman family]]. The name therefore comes from being in the northern part of the former Ormesby parish.<br />
<br />
The neighbourhood has in recent years seen somewhat of a decline, with much of its original housing having long been demolished, partially as allowance for new developments, including, more recently{{when|date=July 2021}}, the erection of numerous new buildings and the restructuring of the [[A66 road|A66]] [[Redcar]] to [[Penrith, Cumbria|Penrith]] trunk road which passes through the north of the area.<br />
<br />
In October 2017, it was revealed to have the cheapest average house price in England and Wales, at £36,000, down 60% since 2007 (after inflation adjustment).<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-41582755|title = House prices: Have they actually gone up in your neighbourhood?|work = BBC News|date = 17 October 2017}}</ref><br />
<br />
The neighbourhood was featured as the lead story on BBC News at Six on 12 June 2024 as having one of the worst crime rates in Britain with regular robberies, drug dealing, criminal damage and theft. <ref> BBC goes inside estates where residents say crime has made life brutal BBC News at Six 12 June 2024 18.00 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/cnllzzzljdro </ref><br />
