I remember going as a kid and had a great time, lovely seaside town. I went around nine years ago, and I could not believe what I was seeing. It's much much worse than Scarborough to be honest. @ Rohan

Have you been to Redcar recently? It is run down and has been getting worse over the years with no investment from anywhere. To be honest most of it needs knocking down and rebuilding!!

I haven't received a response from Visit Britain yet, but then it was 4 days ago when I emailed them. I'd like to think they would have the decency to reply, but I will update this post in a few days. @ Nick

The points you mentioned why, so not sure it just one reason. Darren

The North is neglected. I have emailed Visit Britain tonight to ask for their response on the blog post and comments left here. Let's see if we receive a response. @ Karen
