On the South side of Victoria Bridge lies Thornaby On Tees which has been a settlement since the Danes arrived back in AD 800. The town was mentioned in the Doomsday Book. Its oldest building, St Peter's church on Thornaby Green, dates back to the 11th & 12th Centuries. The church is said to be one of the oldest and smallest buildings in the Tees Valley, still in full use for weddings, funerals, baptisms and christenings.
