The 31-year-old centre-back joins the Seadogs after terminating his contract with the Quakers.

 

Burgess is no stranger to the Yorkshire Coast, having previously turned out for Boro's rivals Whitby Town.

 

Burgess, who came through the youth ranks at Middlesbrough, initially joined Darlington back in 2007, before an initial loan spell at Whitby Town led to a permanent move to the Turnbull Ground in 2008.

 

After enjoying seven seasons with the Blues, making 276 appearances, the centre-back moved back to the Quakers in the summer of 2015 when the north-east side was promoted into the Northern Premier.

 

In his first season, Burgess captained the Quakers to the Northern Premier League title, then making the step up to establish himself as a regular in the middle of defence in the National League North the following year.

 

After finding opportunities limited at Blackwell Meadows in the early stages of last season, the Darlington skipper was made available for transfer in September 2017, going on to spend the second half of the campaign on loan at former side Whitby Town to steer the Seasiders away from the relegation zone.
