Educational groups, talks, and tours

Teesside Archives will be temporarily closed until spring 2024 while the Dorman Museum is refurbished. While we're closed, we'll answer email enquiries where possible, but document copying and our research service will be suspended until we reopen.

Educational groups

Teesside Archives staff can run sessions for school and university groups, or supply resources which can be used by teaching staff.

Current sessions available include:

  • History of the River Tees
  • Middlesbrough – town through time
  • World War II – air raid reports
  • Victorian workhouses – Hartlepool, Middlesbrough, and Guisborough
  • Bridge building
  • Maps
  • Career advice for getting into archives and conservation
  • Introduction to archives

Our sessions can be tailored for any age group from early years to higher education. We're continuing to develop other sessions on a range of topics including history, geography, engineering, and creative writing.

Walks and talks

We can run guided heritage walks around Teesside based on local history and material from our collections.

A member of staff can also give a talk to your organisation about Teesside Archives, how the service works, and any records relevant to your interests.
