Teesside is a conurbation and industrial area in the north-east of
England. Less well known than other key industrial areas such as
Tyneside, the Potteries and the Black Country, Teesside has a
valuable industrial heritage. Based principally on the towns of
Billingham, Middlesbrough, Redcar, Stockton-on-Tees and Thornaby,
Teesside was a key area for engineering, iron and steel,
shipbuilding and the production of chemicals. Today, chemicals and
engineering are still important in an area that has been hit hard
by industrial decline. Intrigued by the stark functional beauty of
Teesside's heavy industry, Peter Tucker began photographing the
area’s industrial landscape in the 1990s. This book provides a
valuable visual record of Teesside's heavy industry in recent
times, plus some of the more surprising more conventionally
attractive places in the area. It will be of immense interest for
enthusiasts of local history, industry, photography and the
north-east region.
