Car Hire Centre in Middlesbrough, Yorkshire, United Kingdom | Car Rental

Welcome to Car Hire Centre, Middlesbrough, United Kingdom. The largest town in the urban area known as Teesside that straggles along the North East Coast, Middlesbrough was little more than a village at the beginning of the 19th-Century. The discovery of iron ore nearby changed that, and the advent of steel mills dictated Middlesbrough’s rapid, enormous growth over the next century as an industrial centre manufacturing famous engineering works such as the Sydney Harbour Bridge which, few people know, has the legend 'made in Middlesbrough' stamped on its side. Today, heavy industry has been all but abandoned in favour of the chemical plants that are dotted across Teesside. The area is not rich but is famously friendly, and visitors to Middlesbrough find a modern, bustling town which is beginning the process of regeneration with dockside developments, designer shops, a lively student scene and easy access to the North Eastern coast and countryside.

Middlesbrough did not develop as a town for pleasure but as a convenient industrial site, and consequently it has few ‘attractions’ for tourists. The few heritage curiosities it does have seem to be somehow accidental – Captain Cook was born in the area before Middlesbrough as we know it existed, and inhabitants of ‘the borough’ have found themselves lucky to have an internationally successful football team.
