• Middlesbrough Council: Teesside Archives Teesside Archives is responsible for collecting and preserving archival material from official and private sources in the areas served by the councils of Middlesbrough, Redcar & Cleveland, Stockton and Hartlepool. Historically, the river Tees formed the boundary between North Yorkshire and County Durham. In the 1970's the county of Cleveland was formed which straddled the river, this was then superseded by Teesside. The archives based in Middlesbrough are in effect a full scale records office with all the parish records etc. which you would normally expect to find. Redcar and Cleveland council covers a huge chunk of North Yorkshire, almost as far down as Whitby.
