I have to laugh when I recollect that back in the sixties the Mayor of Stockton referred to this and the surrounding farms as being ‘the lungs of Teesside’. The area to the east of Stockton bordering on Portrack, Tilery and Grange Road has become a dump for light industry, prisons, new schools, freightliner terminals and hypermarkets of one form or another.
This site used to be fields and farm land, odd why its built so close to a school…
