Opened on Wednesday 28th February 1934 by the Duke of York, the Tees (Newport) Bridge was dubbed the ‘Tees Wonder Bridge’ by the press and celebrated as the largest vertical-lift bridge of its type in the world. Constructed by Middlesbrough-based Dorman Long, the famed bridge builders responsible for global icons such as the Sydney Harbour Bridge and Newcastle’s Tyne Bridge, the colossal Teesside landmark has played a vital part in the history of the region for over 90 years. The Tees Newport Bridge: The Untold Story of a Steel River Landmark by Tosh Warwick features dozens of previously unpublished construction and opening ceremony photographs as the fascinating history of the Grade II listed structure is revealed. The transformative role played by the bridge, tales of triumphs and tragedies, and dozens of memories are accompanied by artwork and a range of facts, figures and plans as this remarkable example of British engineering and local legacy of Dorman Long is celebrated.

The story of Middlesbrough as a town is one that dates back less than two centuries, with the emergence of the modern urban centre the product of Victorian industrialisation and rapid urban expansion. Despite this relatively short history, the fascination and pride in Middlesbrough’s heritage is as strong as that found in established historical towns, evokes poignant memories and prompts lively debates. Memories of Middlesbrough in the 1970s and 1980s includes over 100 historic photographs of many of the town’s familiar landmarks and provides an insight into a period that brought unprecedented change. Inspired by the photographs of John Severs, Teesside Archives and other private and public collections, the book charts demolition of historic buildings, the disappearance of many industries, regeneration, sporting glories and shares the memories of the people of Middlesbrough.
