  1. Calling all Primary School teachers in Teesside!

  2. A small sheltered inlet on the River Tees near where it finally meets the North Sea.
    The ignominiously-named 'Paddy's Hole' provides a safe mooring for numerous small boats on the South Gare, near Redcar on the North Yorkshire coast.
    The access road to this almost 'other-worldly' location used to skirt around the blast furnaces of Teesside's steel industry where, if you timed it right, you could feel the heat of molten slag being poured.
    The South Gare is a popular spot for bird-watchers and those just wanting to visit a place that has a bit of a unique atmosphere.

  6. I have just got back from walking along part of the Cleveland Hills above Guisborough in North Yorkshire. It was a sunny but frosty morning after several days of rain. The air was very clear. The Cleveland Hills and Pennines were capped with snow. Beyond Teesmouth, on the northern horizon were two white shapes that I had not seen before. The leftmost was long and flat, the rightmost narrow and pointed. I am fairly sure these were the snow-capped Cheviot and Hedgehope Hill, 80 miles away and almost on the Scottish border. When I was at the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne in the '80s my tutor said that he could see the Cheviot from his office in the Claremont Tower. See the image in this old article in the Guardian for what they look like: theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/m. Today the snowline on them was at a lower level than in that image.

  7. Dredging Up Trouble on the Tees

    The tanker Stolt Auk slips past a derelict wooden jetty at South Gare, heading for Rotterdam. The jetty is older than the Gare itself, built before 1888, and once served the North Riding (Fortress) Royal Engineers as part of the river’s coastal defences. It now stands abandoned, a relic of an industrial past that never quite goes away.

  8. In the TV series 'Auf Wiedersehen, Pet', the iconic Tees Transporter Bridge was sold, dismantled and re-assembled across a gorge in the USA.
    In real life, the Middlesbrough landmark, known locally affectionately as the 'The Tranny', was this year added to Historic England's Heritage at Risk register.
    Sadly, the Grade II* listed structure has now been out of service since 2019 over concerns about safety.
    In 2024, following a number of structural assessments, engineers reported that the crossing was at risk of catastrophic collapse and that the cost of repairs were estimated to be in excess of £60m.

  9. Spanning the River Tees at Stockton in NE England, the public pedestrian/cycle crossing known as 'Infinity Bridge' is a great place to catch a sunset composition at this time of the year.
    It's a short distance downstream from Stockton's town centre, near the Tees Barrage.
    Opened in 2009, it was built at a cost of £15 million.

  10. The Teesworks Deal: Who Gets the Gold and Who Takes the Risk?

    An article in the latest Private Eye about the grand scheme to rebuild the old steelworks on the Tees set me thinking of Eston Nab, where I used to run at lunchtimes while working at ICI Wilton. The steelworks was also one of my sites back then, so its rise, fall and resurrection have always held a cert ...

  14. This rat found in Teesside UK is absolutely huge at 56cm from end to end. I'm not going to put my hand near it! It is a thing of nightmares.

    It would need one big cat to have a good chance of killing it.

    Seen in the good old Graun.

  16. Nearly £1bn in funding has been confirmed for major #transport upgrades across the Tees Valley through the City Region Sustainable Transport Settlement (CRSTS2). The £978m package will accelerate key projects, including a new station at Teesside Park, a third platform at Middlesbrough Station, and an autonomous #tram network. Other priorities include a £20m upgrade to #Teesside Airport station, a new South Bank station to support Teesworks, and a £15m bus station in #Middlesbrough. Improvements to the A19 Tees Crossing, studies for an Eastern Tees Crossing, and better freight access from Eaglescliffe to Northallerton are also included. The plan will upgrade nine major bus corridors, enhance cycling infrastructure, and develop a Darlington Northern Link Road. Mayor Ben Houchen welcomed the funding, calling it a vital step toward delivering better daily transport, supporting growth, and boosting trade across Teesside, #Darlington, and #Hartlepool.

  17. Low tide at 'Paddy's Hole' on Teesside's enigmatic South Gare, near Redcar in North East England. One of the tick-box locations for fans of British TV's crime drama television series based on the Vera Stanhope novels by Ann Cleeves.

  18. The drama created by that industrial behemoth, the Redcar Steelworks, may be long gone, but nearby Paddy's Hole on Teesside's South Gare is still a great spot for another kind of drama.
    The location has featured in a number of episodes of the ITV detective drama series 'Vera', so I'm sure that this view would be familiar with actress Brenda Blethyn (AKA detective chief inspector Vera Stanhope).

  20. Stockton's fabulous 'Infinity Bridge', spanning the River Tees in North East England – I love it! As for the bridge's name, it comes from the symbol for infinity (∞), which manifests itself when the bridge is reflected in a calm River Tees.

  21. Remembering Teesside's South Gare behemoth – the former blast furnaces at Warrenby, near Redcar. Used to love a drive down to this dramatic, other-worldly location, featured in a number of episodes of the ITV series 'Vera'.

  22. In #PortTalbot wurden 2024 die zwei Hochöfen zur Eisenproduktion von #Tata stillgelegt. Sie sollen später durch Lichtbogenöfen ersetzt werden, um Schrott wieder einzuschmelzen.
    Damit verbleiben in #UK noch die beiden Hochöfen in #Scunthorpe von #BritishSteel, die auch bald stillgelegt und möglicherweise durch Lichtbogenöfen ersetzt werden sollen.
    In #Teesside könnte auch ein Lichtbogenofen gebaut werden.

  23. @NWBylines

    That's a well written tear down highlighting the issues with blue hydrogen, CCS and ongoing fossil fuel processing at the Stanlow refinery.

    It's depressing that the Labour government is clearly in thrawl to the fossil fuel industry. Not to the extent the Tories were, but enough to allow them to divert billions into projects that shouldn't exist.

  24. Ellen Wilkinson: The Fiery Reformer of Middlesbrough East

    It has been some time since I was last on Eston Nab, that famed vantage point over Teesside, whose views—oh, those familiar scenes—shift and churn like the Tees itself in flood, eternally restless, rarely still.
    Come with me, back to this day, 29 October, 100 years ago, 1924. The British people were trudging to the polls yet again f ...
