The Stockton Arms in Hartburn closed this week for a fortnight following the decision by Stockton Council's licensing committee. Members had heard from Cleveland Police that under-age test purchasers bought alcohol at the pub in May and June 2007 and in February this year. http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Ts18-OxbridgeGrangefield/~3/344498367/stockton_pubs_licence_suspende.html http://ts18.gazettelive.co.uk/2008/07/stockton_pubs_licence_suspende.html Stockton News Thu, 24 Jul 2008 11:46:24 +0000 http://ts18.gazettelive.co.uk/2008/07/stockton_pubs_licence_suspende.html WORK is well under way to give Stockton's Cultural Quarter a facelift.

Stockton Council is aiming to slash the pigeon population blighting Stockton town centre by half within the next three years. Culling is not expected to form a "significant" part of the strategy, but is not being ruled out - particularly where birds pose a threat to health. Like rats, pigeons carry a number of potentially infectious diseases, including tuberculosis, which can be transmitted to humans through contamination of food by pigeon droppings or by the birds themselves. http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Ts18-OxbridgeGrangefield/~3/341388637/stockton_council_to_tackle_the.html http://ts18.gazettelive.co.uk/2008/07/stockton_council_to_tackle_the.html Stockton News Sat, 19 Jul 2008 09:41:34 +0000 http://ts18.gazettelive.co.uk/2008/07/stockton_council_to_tackle_the.html A WEEK-LONG 'River Festival' could be launched next spring to promote and celebrate leisure facilities on the River Tees. The festival is one of the ideas put forward as a result of a 10- month review of river-based fun and leisure activities in Stockton Borough. Widely considered as one of the region's most valuable natural assets, the River Tees is at the heart of the area's regeneration. The review of leisure activities on the 13-mile stretch of the river from the Tees Barrage, through Stockton and Yarm and onto Low Worsall, is set to form a blueprint for accelerating its improvement. http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Ts18-OxbridgeGrangefield/~3/341388638/weeklong_festival_tops_ideas_f.html http://ts18.gazettelive.co.uk/2008/07/weeklong_festival_tops_ideas_f.html Stockton News Stockton Sport Sat, 19 Jul 2008 09:31:50 +0000 http://ts18.gazettelive.co.uk/2008/07/weeklong_festival_tops_ideas_f.html A STOCKTON shop owner has spoken out after being terrorised by a gang of young yobs for dressing differently.

Alistair was joined by an ex pupil of the school, Simon Trenholm, the Manager of new Middlesbrough supply teaching agency Vision for Education. The pair completed the 276 mile Coast to coast to Coast journey in 48hrs, cycling from Sunderland to Whitehaven and back. Alistair and Simon followed the Coast to Coast route, designed by Sustrans on the 21st and 22nd June. Simon was glad to be involved saying "It is excellent to be able to put something back into Schools. My wife Saira and I started Vision for Education in February and being ex teachers ourselves, wanted to create a community of Supply Teachers working in Local Schools. We also wanted to create partnerships with the schools we work with and this is a great opportunity to show our commitment to schools in the area" As well as the Sustrans route being followed over the weekend, groups of students from the school got in on the action riding the same distance on exercise bikes on Thursday 3rd July. Thankfully all involved managed to come through their bike ride unscathed and also managed to raise a little over £2000. To support Ian Ramsey and its place in the local community the Foundation needs financial support. The recent development of a new music suite has left funds in the foundation at a critical level. If you wish to support the School, you can still donate to the Ian Ramsey foundation and it could not be easier, log onto www.justgiving.com, searching for either Alistair Armstrong or Simon Trenholm, call the school on 01642 585205, or call Vision for Education on 01642 243843. http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Ts18-OxbridgeGrangefield/~3/339104814/ian_ramseys_coast_to_coast_vis.html http://ts18.gazettelive.co.uk/2008/07/ian_ramseys_coast_to_coast_vis.html Fri, 18 Jul 2008 15:21:13 +0000 http://ts18.gazettelive.co.uk/2008/07/ian_ramseys_coast_to_coast_vis.html POLICE and fire crews were called to a street in Stockton town centre after a Transit van was set alight.
