Steel giants once ruled Middlesbrough’s skyline, but beneath their shadows lie secrets even locals whisper about. Hidden rebellions, sudden innovation, and art born from hardship pulse through these streets.

Uncover them all with this self-guided audio journey that weaves you through galleries, museums, and the city’s forgotten corners. Follow winding paths to stories you’d never spot on a postcard.

Why did a storm of controversy explode around a simple exhibition at the Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art? What rare artifact in Dorman Museum holds the key to a century-old unsolved mystery? Who left midnight messages carved into the stone outside BBC Radio Tees and why were they quickly erased?

Move from iron age echoes to contemporary brushstrokes, feeling each footstep reframe Middlesbrough’s turbulent tale. This is discovery in motion—unexpected turns, lost voices rising, each landmark revealing more than its facade.

Start walking and let Middlesbrough reveal the stories it keeps under steel and canvas.
