From Queen Elizabeth II to Boris Johnson: Memorable moments from Hartlepool marina

Hartlepool marina has seen many changes since the 1990s and also in just the last couple of years with the council-led Waterfront developments.

The area has welcomed high-profile visitors, including politicians and people from all over the world – and been a source of work and play for residents.

Here are just a few marina memories from our archives.
