Eston

Eston is a town within the borough of Redcar and Cleveland and the ceremonial county of North Yorkshire. It forms part of the Middlesbrough conurbation in Teesside, but is outside the borough boundary. With other suburbs it forms a Greater Eston area.
The town of Eston lies at the foot of Eston Hills, a ridge 150-200 m above sea level, and a part of the Cleveland Hills. The land around Eston has been occupied since 2400BC, but it was the discovery of ironstone in Eston Hills by Industrialists from Middlesbrough (most notably Henry Bolkow & John Vaughn) in 1841 that saw Eston development start in 1850, from two cottages to a thriving mining town.
