Description

Secret Middlesbrough reveals the hidden past and lesser-known tales of this historic town by the Tees. From its transformation into an industrial hub with the arrival of the Stockton & Darlington Railway, to its impressive architectural landmarks like the Transporter Bridge, the story of Middlesbrough is one of fascinating contrasts.

The town's rich musical and artistic heritage is also on show, with notable connections to Chris Rea and Paul Rodgers, as well as the world-famous Linthorpe Pottery gallery. Yet there remains much that is obscure in this northern town, waiting to be uncovered by those interested in its history.

This book delves into Middlesbrough's lesser-known past, uncovering tantalising tales, traditions and trivia that will inform and fascinate anyone with an interest in the town's story. A fascinating look at a great north-eastern town.
