Middlehaven
Middlehaven is the oldest district in Middlesbrough, situated to the north of the current centre, North Yorkshire, England. It is adjacent to the Transporter Bridge and by the River Tees to the north, and the railway (originally) and A66 in the south. The area has had waves of regeneration since post-war devastation. Today, the area includes from (west to east) a manufacturing and industrial sector, and Boho zone developments (residential and commerce), Middlesbrough College and the Riverside Stadium. History The area formed what was the original town centre of Middlesbrough after its foundation around 1830, and was originally known as St. Hilda's after the parish church of the same name. The district was eventually separated from the southward expansion of the town by the railway in 1846. The Old Town Hall was completed at that time. By the 1930s, the area had become slums, with overcrowding and high crime, and demolitions begun despite protests from residents. Later, in ...

Riverside Stadium
The Riverside Stadium is a football stadium in Middlesbrough, England, which has been the home of Middlesbrough since it opened in 1995. Its current capacity is 34,742, all seated, although there is provisional planning permission in place to expand that to 42,000 if required. History The stadium was built to replace Ayresome Park after the Taylor Report, which required all top division football stadiums to be all-seater. After the report was delivered in January 1990, Middlesbrough needed an all-seater stadium by August 1994, and were unable to expand Ayresome Park outwards owing to its location in a residential area, and expanding the stadium upwards would have limited the club to a capacity of around 20,000 seats – the club wanted a considerably larger capacity. The decision was taken by club officials to build a new stadium; Teesside Development Corporation offered them the Middlehaven site by the River Tees for development. The new 30,000 seater stadium was construct ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The structure, which has been vacant since 1996, is a Grade II listed building. The adjacent clock tower is separately listed.
