Middlesbrough and Cleveland Iron Trade Jubilee

The Middlesbrough and Cleveland Iron Trade Jubilee in 1881: general view of Middlesbrough, North Yorkshire. The ILN says, "The fiftieth anniversary of the flourishing town of Middlesbrough-on-Tees, the seat of the great Cleveland iron trade of North Yorkshire, was celebrated... the streets were gaily decorated, and at night there were illuminations and fireworks in the Albert Park. Pasture land and cornfields have given place to numerous ironworks, thousands of houses and shops, and miles of streets."
