Hi Steve
Middlesbrough was included in Stockton Reg District
I have forgotten when it was given its own.
Since the abandonment of Cleveland as a County Stockton is now back in Co.
Durham, like you said north of the tees & Middlesbrough is N Yorks.
Yarm , although south of Tees is still in Stockton Reg District. Historical
links here I guess.
