Langbaurgh East

Langbaurgh East was a wapentake of the North Riding of Yorkshire, the eastern division of Langbaurgh. The name is presently in use as a local justice area (formerly a petty sessional division), consisting of the eastern, mostly rural part of the borough of Redcar and Cleveland. Today, the area is commonly called East Cleveland.

It can be considered that any settlement east of Redcar is in East Cleveland. The biggest towns in East Cleveland are Marske-by-the-Sea, Saltburn-by-the-Sea, Skelton, Brotton and Loftus.

The East Wapentake in particular covered roughly the area of modern day Redcar & Cleveland and the Northern most parts of the Scarborough district. The boundary roughly follows from Wilton along to Redcar in the North and all the way down to Whitby in the south across to Danby, west of Whitby then back up along the Cleveland Hills back up to Wilton.
