Stockton-on-Tees is a high-spirited market town in County Durham, England.
Famous for its Stockton and Stockton and Darlington Railway, which was home to the world’s first ever steam-hauled passenger train in 1825, this historic town housed major engineering, shipbuilding and steel, and chemical manufacturing industries in the 19th Century.
An innovative town that’s increasingly on the move, Stockton has plenty of exciting plans in store, including a £300M Northshore Scheme to implement many new buildings and attractions in the area, as well as long-term plans to transform the urban core of the Tees Valley.
