Did you work at Consett Steelworks, or did a parent, grandparent or other family member? What was life really like? I'd love to hear your memories, photographs and stories.
If you're from Consett, what do you think is the town's greatest legacy? And if you're visiting from elsewhere, what surprised you most about its history?
I read every comment, and your memories often help shape future documentaries, so please share your stories below.
Absolutely fascinating as always!
I remember going there just after it closed we went to pick up equipment no longer required to take back to Cleveland works (Teesside) very strange experience of course Teesside went the same way a country that built the modern World now just an empty shell
Absolutely fantastic video you made here buddy — Thanks. You are getting better and better. We had a couple of walks around Consett and have seen only some of the sites, but this video has inspired us to go back. This was a brilliant history lesson ! It should be shown in schools around the North East and beyond !
Superb!! Thanks for putting this together superb historical account of my local town ! Heritage and history of the families & folks of Consett & district not to be forgotten. Thanks 😊👍
A very emotive documentary.Thank you 💗

Born and raised in consett couldn’t wait to leave, unfortunately not the same as it use to be
Travelled along watling Street leadgate to Lanchester. I guess that was part of dere Street. Very straight road
My uncle was a coker/burner at Consett, the last 20 years of his life was hell, wired up to an oxygen bottle, his lungs ruined. R.I.P Uncle Arnold
My Husbands family are from the Consett (and Stockton) area, growing up in the shadow of the furnaces before the slum clearance. If you are lucky enough to be in the North East, look out for a pint called Red Dust by the Consett Ale company. One of the best pints ever tasted. It takes its name from the fine Red dust from the steel works that covered everything in the area.
Now its full of smack heads.
Consett born and bred I remember the works, the red dust and the smell. We used to go up the line and get spilled iron pellets for wor catapults. It was hard when the works closed but we're still here
Pleased you are so upbeat about this. There was me seeing well paid skilled jobs replaced by low wage low skill work if you could get it.
In the early 90's, Harold Wilson, former Labour Prime-minster did a late night TV interview (HardTalk or something similar) in which he stated that he was on a committee in 1968/9 where it was decided that as part of the process to join the EC/EEC, (which later became the EU) that a timetable/framework was to be drawn up to close down the UK's Steelworks, Pits and Shipyards and that the work that would have been done by them was to be divided between Germany and the USA. Ted Heath, the Conservative Prime-minister, took us into the EC/EEC in 1974. Thatcher decided to do it in one fell swoop with the help of Ian McGregor.
And don't forget that in 1995, Ken Clarke the Tory Chancellor congratulated Consett works on its progress and praised it as the most modern steelworks in Europe.
My Grandfather was a furnaceman at the works. He spent his retirement in Crookhall.
Excellent work Steve, superbly presented and informative.Strangely i've never visited Consett but i have crossed Sydney Harbour bridge.
Wonderful, thanks, matey, for spending all the time and effort and research into making this great documentary.
Amazing great work. my grandad worked here he would always tell me stories of what it was like. He lost a good friend as he was on top of the scaffolding and he fell into one of the Steel Ladle Trucks that was full of molten iron
Thats not Derwentcote !
Thats Allensford blast furnace !
Derwentcote Steel Furnace is located to the right hand side of the road coming out of Shotley Bridge towards Ebchester and is a visitor attraction.
I was enjoying this video until this monumental cock up.
Ive lived in Consett for 21 years so i know what im talking about
Its sad to see consett now. Its a shell of its former self, like a lot of north east towns.
Excellent history , thanks for this 😊
The winter of 1887 was a particularly harsh one in Consett. It's documented in leaves from Consett iron company letter books 1887 1891. They are letters between w Jenkins , Consett general manager and d dale, the managing director who lives in Darlington along with letters to various suppliers. It documents the suffering in the town. It would make a great video. If youd like a copy and can't get one let me know. You can have mine.
I was born in Consett and after being de-mobbed from the Army I worked at Consett Iron Company and I can vividly remember how thriving the town was, I moved away with my family before the Company closed. Happy day.
Amazing video! I have lived in Consett my whole life and it nice to see it represented so positively in such a good piece of media.
Great documentary. Im Consett born and bred. Thankyou.
I took my sister's to Stanley today…. Don't worry Consett… You're doing ok …. What a barren reminder of how shit it was and how far it's come to another unrecoverable level of shit
I lived down Delves lane, leadgate and moorside for a while and it's bloody mental 😂
Nice to see somewhere local be talked about.
My uncle is in the very first picture XX
Consett born and bred. What a fantastic documentary this is. May I ask what drone you used?
Brilliant work as usual. Well done.
Seen you when u were filming the phone box at ebchester driving pass in a doves wagon and wondered what you were doing please ur vid came up on my yt feed 👍🏼👍🏼
I worked for 12 years in Consett Steel Works CIC. It was hard and dirty with long working hours,
but the camaraderie was 2nd to none. Where in Consett, you knew almost everyone. Where a
sense of community was everything.
Great to learn about the history and development of the town I recently moved very close to. I love the little snippets that can remembered and shared again, for example the use of Consett steel in the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Keep up the good work and thanks.
Very informative and well produced I left school in 1979 and remember the closure and its effect, my dad and both my older brothers worked there until the end, our mam worked the blast top during ww2 along with other young women, whilst the men were fighting the war .One point number 1 industrial est is not on the steel works site , it is in the area of the old number 1 pit. Wish you had been able to put some info in regarding the fight to keep the works open. Well worth a watch
Superb presentation, thank you.
The number 1 industrial estate was not the site of the iron/steel works it was in fact the site of number one pit (pit No. 1) the first pit sunk by the Derwent iron company in the mid 1800's 1840 ish
I'm born and bred in Consett and I remember with a lump in my throat the day the company closed but I also remember with great fondness that there were days we couldn't hang washing out to dry because it would get covered by that red dust (iron oxide) 😢😂
Thanks for making this, grew up in Consett and visit mainly for funerals. Learned a lot about my heritage and not far from broadcast quality.
great video thanks for all the work and time you have taken
Our Steelworks became "Festival park," and our infamous pottery industry became deralict buildings 😢
