Stroll 51 Hartlepool to Middlesborough

 

Walking from Hartlepool to Middlesborough is probably to visit the most industrialised bit of the whole coastline. From the now derelict (pits, iron works etc) to the more recent (chemicals, chemicals) to the just about hanging on (shipping, nuclear power station) to the future (wind turbine manufacture) there is a lot of stuff being made and going on.
First off I followed the coast south where coal dust still appears on the beaches, with offshore turbines adding drama.
