WE SHALL BE Heritage

In November 2025 we opened an exhibition in our Open House space featuring the WE SHALL BE heritage research carried out by volunteers and Teesside Archives. This includes the origin of the town of Middlesbrough, how the coat of arms and town motto came about and how it’s been used through time to now.

This is currently on display and open for visitors every Saturday 10.30-4 on the ground floor of Dundas House, Dundas Shopping Centre, Middlesbrough
