Background
History
The Portrack Marshes part of the area was once south of the River Tees, as part of the Portrack Cut. It was the site of a large municipal incinerator which took in and burned waste from across Teesside. The incinerator was closed in 1996 and demolished in 1999 and 2000. In 1892 Portrack was the site of several clay pits. The local Blackett's Brickworks used clay from the clay pits.
