In 1887, John Bartholomew's Gazetteer of the British Isles described Port Clarence like this:
Port Clarence, small port with ry. sta., Durham, at N. side of mouth of the Tees, 9 miles S. of Hartlepool by rail and 4 miles NE. of Stockton; P.O., T.O.; is a port for the shipping of coal, and is rapidly becoming a place of importance. Middlesbrough is reached by means of a ferry across the Tees.
Port Clarence is now part of STOCKTON ON TEES Unitary Authority. Click here for graphs and data of how STOCKTON ON TEES has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Port Clarence itself, go to Statistics.
