  • Teesside Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities
    Teesside Countryside Directory for People with Disabilities Second edition Whatever your needs, access to and enjoyment of the countryside is rewarding, healthy and great fun. This directory can help you find out what opportunities are available to you in your area. Get yourself outdoors and enjoy all the benefits that come with it… Foreword written by: Jeremy Garside, Chief Executive of Tees Valley Wildlife Trust This directory was designed for people with a disability, though the information included will be useful to everyone. Alongside its heavy industry Teesside has some fantastic countryside. There are numerous parks, green spaces and nature reserves which provide excellent opportunities for countryside activities, from walking to wildlife spotting. It is more than worth taking that first step and getting yourself involved in your local countryside, regardless of your abilities. For people interested in wildlife and conservation there is much that can be done from home or a local accessible area. Whatever your chosen form of countryside recreation, whether it’s joining a group, doing voluntary work, or getting yourself out into the countryside on your own, we hope you will get as much out of it as we do. There is still some way to go before we have a properly accessible countryside. By contacting Open Country or another of the organisations listed here, you can help us to encourage better access for all in the future. This Second Edition published Spring 2019 Copyright © Open Country 2019 Foreword Getting into the countryside is such an important thing for all of us. There is nothing better than the natural environment for the body and soul.

  • Stockton Trails
    Stockton Trails Point of interests’ information 1. Aislaby It is thought that Aislaby is a Viking place name meaning Aislac's village. In the 1700s a small quay was constructed at Low Worsall, a further mile upstream of Aislaby. Here lead quarried up in Swaledale and other goods from North Yorkshire were loaded onto small boats to be transported down the river. Long before the age of steam, sailing on this narrow section of the Tees required the tides and wind to be just right. To overcome this problem boats were often hauled by horses walking along the riverbank, causing disputes between the local farmers and boat owners. 2. Yarm Viaduct Half a mile long and standing some 22m above the river, the viaduct dominates the town. It was built by the Leeds Northern Railway between 1849 and 1851 at a cost of £44,500. The viaduct has 43 arches and, to save you counting, it’s constructed with around seven million bricks. In 1895 the River Tees at Yarm became so frozen that boats were trapped within the ice, and it was possible, although dangerous, to walk across from one side of the river to the other, and the river became a skating rink for young and old (photo attached). 3. Yarm Bridge Originally built on the orders of Bishop Skirlaw of Durham around 1400, the bridge has been altered many times over the centuries. It started life as a narrow pack horse bridge with tolls to be paid when crossing. River Tees Rediscovered 2017 1 During the English Civil War Egglescliffe was heavily involved in guarding the bridge on behalf of the Royalists, while Parliamentarian forces occupied Yarm.

  • Marketing the Tourism Offer of the Borough of Stockton-On-Tees Evidence for the Scrutiny by the Arts Leisure & Culture Selec
    MARKETING THE TOURISM OFFER OF THE BOROUGH OF STOCKTON-ON-TEES EVIDENCE FOR THE SCRUTINY BY THE ARTS LEISURE & CULTURE SELECT COMMITTEE OF THE COUNCIL OF THE BOROUGH 2012 By John Fletcher Introduction This evidence does not seek to cover the whole topic, but rather to pull together some strands connected with this borough’s railway and engineering heritage. Although the Council’s finances are under pressure, the marketing of this aspect of the tourism offer follows on logically from the work of the last few years, such as the Adults, Leisure & Culture Select Committee’s scrutiny of Preston Hall & Park in 20061, the subsequent improvements and re-opening in the last few weeks of Preston Hall Museum, and the Council’s Heritage2 and Tourism Strategies. Theme of the Evidence In marketing the tourism offer of the Borough of Stockton-on-Tees, it is important to look for what the area can offer which is distinctive from many other places. One such niche is the area’s railway heritage, set in the wider context of the engineering heritage. At the same time, it is necessary to demonstrate that there is more to see and do, as only one of a party of visitors might be interested in railways/engineering. The Stockton & Darlington Railway (S & DR), opened in 1825, entitles both towns to claim the title of “The Birthplace of the Railways. The essence of a railway is that it runs from one place to another. This, and the need to have a package worthwhile for people to travel to see, makes it desirable that the Boroughs of Stockton and Darlington co- operate.
