Middlesbrough, Administrative district in North Yorkshire, England

Middlesbrough sits on the south bank of River Tees, covering 54 square kilometers of land with residential areas and industrial zones.

The extension of Stockton and Darlington Railway in 1830 led to the establishment of Middlesbrough as the first railway-planned town in England.

The Middlesbrough Town Hall stands as a central venue for regional performances, governmental meetings, and community gatherings throughout the year.

The unitary authority manages local services through 19 council wards, with direct elections determining both council members and the mayor position.

The region transformed from a small farming area into a major industrial center after the discovery of ironstone deposits at Eston Beacon in 1850.
