The town began as an Anglo-Saxon settlement. The manor of Stockton was created arounf 1136, and since then a number of changes have taken place. Stockton's market can trace its history back to 1310, when Bishop Bek of Durham granted a market charter. The town is also famed for being a part of the worlds first steam railway: The Stockton and Darlington Railway. Stockton has the worlds oldest railway station building. The major industries in Stockton include ship-repairing, steel and chemicals.
