Everything about Langbaurgh-on-tees totally explained
The borough of
Redcar & Cleveland is a
unitary authority in the
ceremonial county of
North Yorkshire,
England consisting of
Redcar,
Saltburn-by-the-Sea,
Guisborough, and small towns such as
Brotton,
Skelton and
Loftus. It had a resident population of 139,132 in 2001, and is part of the
Tees Valley economic area. It is represented in Parliament by the barrister
Vera Baird (Labour) for the Redcar constituency and by
Ashok Kumar (Labour) for the Middlesbrough South and East Cleveland constituency.
The district was created in 1974 as the
borough of
Langbaurgh, one of four
districts of the new
non-metropolitan county of
Cleveland. It was formed from the Coatham, Eston Grange, Kirkleatham, Ormesby, Redcar and South Bank wards of the county borough of
Teesside, along with
Guisborough,
Loftus,
Saltburn and Marske-by-the-Sea and
Skelton and Brotton urban districts, from the
North Riding of Yorkshire. The borough was named after the ancient
Langbaurgh wapentake of
Yorkshire. On
January 1 1988 the borough was renamed as
Langbaurgh-on-Tees.
Cleveland was abolished on
April 1,
1996, with its districts becoming unitary authorities. At this time Langbaurgh-on-Tees was renamed Redcar and Cleveland.
With typical political confusion associated with the Teesside region the areas south of the Tees are designated as part of the ceremonial/geographical county of North Yorkshire whilst the whole region, as Tees Valley,exists alongside Durham, Tyne and Wear and Northumberland to form the North East region.
