About

Loftus ward lies in the eastern part of the Redcar and Cleveland borough, centred on the historic market town of the same name. The area is characterised by its position within the steep-sided valley of Easington Beck, with residential streets climbing the surrounding hillsides. Its landscape is a mix of older terraced housing and more modern developments, shaped by a history of ironstone mining. The local economy is focused on high street retail and smaller service businesses serving the community.

The town's layout and identity are heavily influenced by its industrial past, with former mine sites now reclaimed as green spaces. A notable local feature is the Cleveland Ironstone Mining Museum, located at the site of the old Loftus Mine. The ward includes the coastal village of Skinningrove, with its small harbour and distinctive beach. Daily life here is connected to the broader East Cleveland area, with transport links following the natural contours of the land.
