A seaside town in the North East of England named after the Redcar rocks, which were petrified giant redwood trees millions of years ago. Redcar started as a fishing village.

Of interest is the oldest Life boat in the world, built in 1802 and saved 502 lives. Redcar race course was built in 1875 and boasts of the only straight mile in England and 18 troopers of the Light Brigade that survived the charge came from Redcar.

Redcar Clock was built in 1911 to honour King Edward V11's coronation, who was a regular visiter to Redcar.
