Earsdon is a village in Tyne and Wear, England, on the border with Northumberland, approximately two miles from Whitley Bay.
The graveyard of St Alban's Anglican church is home to a memorial to the 204 men and boys killed in the Hartley Colliery Disaster of 1862, at the nearby village of New Hartley. The village's second church, Earsdon Methodist Chapel, is located within the confines of a former quarry.
The children's television series Supergran was filmed in part in the village. The Beehive Inn near Earsdon was used for the filming of the 1976 film The Likely Lads.
