Urban districts of Eston, South Bank in Normanby as well as the parish of Normanby had a failed application to incorporate as a municipal borough on 21 February 1912.[8] The South Bank in Nomanby Urban District was merged into the Eston Urban District in 1915.[6] After the districts merged, the Eston Urban District also had a failed application to incorporate as a municipal borough on 30 January 1926.[9] The County Borough of Teesside was created in 1968: boroughs, districts and parishes in the area merged.[7]

Unparished

In the 1974 local government reforms, the county borough was renamed as the county of Cleveland, expanded as well as restructured to a ceremonial and non-metropolitan county. Areas of former county borough became unparished while the expanded areas remained parished. The county of Cleveland existed between 1974 until 1996, its Langbaurgh borough becoming Redcar and Cleveland.

The borough of Redcar and Cleveland's unparished area, outside of the former Redcar municipal borough unparished area, is the former Eston Urban District and the Ormesby ward.
