About Fencing in Middlesbrough
Middlesbrough grew explosively after the discovery of major iron ore deposits in the nearby Cleveland Hills in 1850, earning the town the nickname Ironopolis as its foundries supplied iron and steel for railways, bridges and landmarks around the world. The Tees Transporter Bridge, opened in 1911, once ranked as the largest working transporter bridge on Earth, ferrying workers and vehicles across the River Tees in just ninety seconds and remaining one of very few such bridges still operating today.
