Teesworks Heritage Task Force

Recording and recognising the cultural, economic and industrial heritage of the former Redcar steelworks.

Informed by stories and ideas from former steelworkers and people living across Tees Valley, the Teesworks Heritage Task Force was established to capture and celebrate the unique history of the former Redcar steelworks.

The role of the Teesworks Heritage Task Force was to consult and explore ways to capture, record and recognise the cultural, economic and industrial heritage of the Teesworks site in Redcar which has been part of Teesside’s long and rich iron and steelmaking heritage.

It was made up of local politicians and industrial heritage experts, including Tees steel industry veteran John Baker, Teesside steel historian Tosh Warwick and a representative of Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council.

Teesworks Heritage Taskforce has now submitted its recommendations to capture and celebrate the history of the  former SSI steelworks site. You can find its report in full here.
