We hope you enjoy your stay and find your ideal accommodation.
Middlesbrough, on the south bank of
the Tees estuary, was a small fishing village before a group
of Quakers associated with the Stockton & Darlington Railway,
decided to turn it into a town in 1829. By 1830 this famous line
had been extended to Middlesbrough, making the rapid expansion
of the town and port inevitable. By 1851, Middlesbrough's population
had grown from 40 people in 1829 to 7,600 and it was rapidly
replacing Stockton as the main port on the Tees. At the turn
of the century Middlesbrough's population had more than doubled
to 90,000 and it must have been hard to believe that only seventy
years earlier the town did not exist. In English history nothing
compares to Middlesbrough's rapid growth, Middlesbrough has been
described as the `oldest new town' in England. Also see Middlesbrough
