About Tees Archaeology

Tees Archaeology is the official archaeological service for the four unitary local authorities of Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar & Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees.

Tees Archaeology has the responsibility to record, research, conserve and inform about all aspects of the archaeology of the area.

We are also able to provide commercial archaeological services.

 

The Tees Valley and its Archaeology

 

The Tees Valley lies on the north-east coast of England, roughly mid-way between Newcastle and York. The Tees Valley consists administratively of the four unitary local authorities of Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, Redcar & Cleveland and Stockton-on-Tees. Tees Archaeology is a joint service of these four authorities.

The area has an abundance of archaeological remains. Its varied local landscapes including its high moors, river valleys, coast and its associated mineral wealth have proved attractive to many past peoples. There is plentiful evidence for prehistoric settlers, Roman traders, Anglo-Saxon migrants, Viking invaders, conquering Normans, medieval farmers and pioneering Victorian industrialists.

Today it is our duty to preserve the relics of our past so that they can be properly understood and enjoyed by ourselves and future generations.
