From the Wikipedia article
Tees and Hartlepool Foreshore and Wetlands SSSI is a 255.62-hectare (631.7-acre) biological Site of Special Scientific Interest in County Durham, England notified in 1997. SSSIs are designated by Natural England, formally English Nature, which uses the 1974–1996 county system. This means there is no grouping of SSSIs by Hartlepool unitary authority, or County Durham which is the relevant ceremonial county . As such this area is one of 18 SSSIs in the Cleveland area of search. It consists of two disjunct areas - foreshore (grid reference NZ516348) and wetlands (grid reference NZ505224), and forms a complex of wetland SSSIs along with Cowpen Marsh, Seal Sands and South Gare and Coatham Sands. Parts of the SSSI are in the Teesmouth National Nature Reserve.
