Visit the Teessaurus Park and explore the Ironmasters’ Trail and learn about the industrial heritage of the River Tees.
This route passes beneath the Newport Bridge and a stop off at the Maze Park Nature Reserve is a must!
Teessaurus Park is a 10 acre recreational area and park which opened on the southern bank of the River Tees in 1979. The Teessaurus park is situated in what was the Ironmasters’ district of Middlesbrough and the route has lots of information on the iron and steel industry that once dominated this stretch of the river. From 1987 onwards, a life size brachiosaurus, brontosaurus, mammoth, stegosaurus and tyrannosaurus sculptures were added at the sides of the park – can you find them all?
The park has a large hill at towards the river which is a perfect picnic spot. Teessaurus Park also has its own small car park and has become something of a nature reserve and the route of the Teesdale Way also passes through this space
