Welcome to Port Clarence

Port Clarence is a small village located in the borough of Stockton-on-Tees in County Durham, England. It is situated on the north bank of the River Tees, near the mouth of the river where it meets the North Sea. The village has a rich history, dating back to the 19th century when it was a thriving port for the export of coal and iron. Today, Port Clarence is a quiet residential area with a population of around 1,500 people.

One of the most notable landmarks in Port Clarence is the Transporter Bridge, which spans the River Tees and connects the village to the town of Middlesbrough on the south bank. The bridge was built in 1911 and is one of only a few remaining transporter bridges in the world. It is a popular tourist attraction and offers stunning views of the river and surrounding area. Another notable feature of Port Clarence is the nearby Seal Sands Nature Reserve, which is home to a variety of wildlife including seals, birds, and fish.

Despite its small size, Port Clarence has a strong sense of community and is home to several local businesses and amenities. These include a primary school, a community centre, and a pub. The village also has good transport links, with regular bus services to nearby towns and cities. Overall, Port Clarence is a charming and peaceful place to live, with a rich history and plenty of natural beauty to explore.
