Tynedale Retail Park handles the bigger shops, while Hexham General Hospital and the station keep the town busy through the week. Each of these places closes, empties or changes hands at a different hour, and that timing decides whether a patrol, an alarm-linked response or a static guard is the right answer. - Four named industrial estates within 5km - Tynedale Retail Park and the town centre shops - Shoplifting down 51% on the year before - Eighteen pubs, bars and clubs around the town Get a Quote [View Hexham on OpenStreetMap](https://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=Hexham%2C%20Northumberland) Hexham Business Profile ## A Northumberland economy led by farming Roughly 11,600 firms appear on Northumberland's register, and farming is the largest sector at 1,800. Builders follow on 1,550, then professional services on 1,440. Farms represent 15.5% of county businesses, more than treble the British level, so countryside routes and off-grid camera towers suit much of the county. Police also report vehicles, machinery and quad bikes going missing from farms. Hospitality is the other standout, at 9.6% against 6.5% nationally, and pubs, hotels and venues need door supervisors and evening staff. Whoever we send to Haugh Lane or Tyne Mills is SIA-licensed, BS 7858 screened and salaried through PAYE, and every shift leaves a GPS trail plus a digital report. 11,600 Registered businesses in Northumberland 18 Pubs, bars & nightclubs within 5 km ### Tynedale estates, shops and stages - **Industrial & business parks:** Haugh Lane Industrial Estate, Tyne Mills Industrial Estate, French Garden Industrial Estate, Acomb Industrial Estate, Egger and Hexham STW - **Retail parks & shopping centres:** Tynedale Retail Park - **Hospitals:** Hexham General Hospital - **Rail stations:** Hexham ### Venues & Martyn's Law The Forum cinema, Queen's Hall Arts Centre and The Vault all draw audiences.

Updated October 2026. Security Requirements in Hexham ## Market streets, river estates, farmland Hexham combines a town centre with an evening economy, a string of industrial estates and a wide farming hinterland. Police point to anti-social behaviour around parks and abandoned buildings, as well as underage drinking and illegal e-scooters, which can leave businesses dealing with the damage afterwards. Retail premises face burglary, shoplifting and criminal damage, often tied to alcohol in the town centre at night. Visible guarding, alarm response and CCTV monitoring tackle different parts of that problem.

Hexham Security FAQs ## Frequently asked questions ### Do you patrol units on Haugh Lane Industrial Estate? Yes. Haugh Lane is one of several named estates inside 5km, along with Tyne Mills and French Garden. Our mobile patrols check in by GPS, and a digital report reaches you after every visit. ### Do you protect farms from machinery and quad bike theft? We do. Farming accounts for 15.5% of Northumberland businesses, and the West Tynedale team names rural theft of vehicles and machinery as a priority. Countryside routes and off-grid towers both help. ### Do Hexham shops still face much theft? Police.uk logged 76 shop thefts in the year, 51% fewer than before. Burglary and damage at retail premises remain a police priority, so store officers, remotely watched cameras and alarm attendance still deserve a look. ### Could you provide door supervisors for pubs and venues? Yes. Hexham has 18 pubs, bars and clubs within 5km, and hospitality forms 9.6% of county firms. Our licensed door staff and event crews already work at places such as Queen's Hall Arts Centre. ### What does your free security audit include?
