CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
Kirkley Lodge is a 47-bed residential care home in Middlesbrough, run by Anchor Hanover Group. CQC registers it to look after older people and people with dementia.
Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in July 2026. 100% of homes in Middlesbrough also score 5. In Middlesbrough, 95% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). 101 of Anchor Hanover Group’s 118 rated homes are Good or Outstanding (compare care home groups).
