Cleveland

Contents

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Cleveland was a county in North East England between 1974 and 1996, straddling the River Tees. It was then abolished and its towns re-assigned.

Towns to the south of the River Tees were re-assigned to North Yorkshire. These are Middlesbrough, Redcar and Yarm.

Towns to the north were re-assigned to County Durham. These are Hartlepool and Stockton-on-Tees. Stockton also straddles the river, and governs the southern rural district of Yarm even though that's in a separate county.

The Cleveland Hills, and the Cleveland Way long-distance footpath, are in North Yorkshire.

This article is on an extra-hierarchical region, describing a region that does not fit into the hierarchy Wikivoyage uses to organise most articles. These "extraregion" articles usually provide only basic information and links to articles in the hierarchy. This article can be expanded if the information is specific to the page; otherwise new text should generally go in the appropriate region or city article.
