More About Consett

Introduction

Consett, located in County Durham in the north-east of England, is a town with a long and distinguished history that dates back to early medieval times when it was situated on the route along the river and gateways to Scotland. In the 19th and 20th centuries, Consett would become a pivotal point in industrial and commercial development. Through inventive and innovative thinking, the town was able to tap into the wealth produced by its mining and other industries, which made it become the thriving and vibrant place that it is today.

Historical Overview

There has been a settlement in the vicinity of Consett since at least the 11th century and for centuries it lay on the main route from England to Scotland. The early development of Consett was largely due to its location and the earlier towns such as Beamish and Ebchester that preceded it.

The Industrial Revolution that swept the nation in the 19th century left a lasting impact on Consett. It was during this time that the local coal and iron ore were discovered, thereby igniting a period of rapid growth and expansion in the town. This not only provided jobs, but also led to the construction of larger and more ambitious buildings such as churches and schools, which remain to this day.

Consett during the 20th Century

Consett maintained a close commercial relationship with neighbouring cities and towns throughout the 20th century. For example, it had the popular Pack Horse Fair and market, a livestock market which attracted traders from all over the UK. The Consett works also enjoyed an enviable reputation in national and international markets, producing steamship engines, munitions and agricultural engines up until the 1930s. By this time, Consett was also producing a wide range of consumer products such as kettles, household appliances and bathroom suites.

Consett was then on the cusp of a further transformation, as World War Two drew to a close. Although some of its older industries faded away, the town was quick to embrace new technologies. This period saw the development of a new airport at Three Horseshoes airfield and the building of the Consett steelworks. Constructed between 1940 and 1960, the Consett steel works was the largest single-site steelworks in Europe and employed thousands of local people.

It became a driving force in the regional economy, responsible for some of the most advanced steel production techniques of the time, and as such was integral to the development of the region. The steelworks was eventually closed down in 1980, leading to further economic decline and mass unemployment in the area.

Consett in the 21st Century

Since the collapse of the steelworks, Consett has been seeking ways to transition from its traditional industrial base to a more modern technology and business centre. To this end, a number of initiatives have been launched, designed to attract inward investment, promote entrepreneurship, develop new businesses and create employment. The most prominent of these is the Consett 'Information Technology Centre' (ITC).

The ITC was established in the early 2000s and seeks to utilise the town's strong industrial legacy and good transport links to create an environment in which a range of businesses can grow and develop. It includes offices, workshops and an internet cafe, along with a co-working space and a business incubator. The ITC also provides Professional Business Support to its members, along with grant and loan opportunities.

The ITC is one of many developments that has helped Consett to make the transition to a more modern economy. The opening of Consett railway station in 2020 has also been beneficial to the town, connecting residents and businesses to the wider region and beyond. Additionally, the town has a thriving creative economy, showcasing design studios, artisan producers and more.

Demographics

At the time of the 2011 census, Consett had a population of 21,506, a decrease of 7.4% on the 2001 census. The majority of residents are white British, accounting for 98.2% of the population. The other 1.8% of ethnic backgrounds are Indian (0.5%), Pakistani (0.3%) and people of mixed heritage (0.9%). 51.3% of the population are Christian, followed by no religion (31.6%), Muslim (2%), other religions (1.7%), none stated or not known (7.2%) and Buddhist, Sikh or Hindu (1.1%).

The age profile of the town is broadly in line with the regional and national averages, with 18.8% of the population being aged 0-17, 68.1% aged 18-64 and 13.3% aged over 65.

Conclusion

Consett is now a vibrant and modern town. Although its origins can be traced back to medieval times, it has undergone significant change throughout its history, from an industrial powerhouse to a technology and business hub. The town's strong transport links, along with the presence of the Information Technology Centre, have helped to foster an environment in which legacy industries can transition to more modern ones. The town also enjoys a strong presence of small businesses, independent creators and more. Consett remains a vital part of the economy of County Durham, as demonstrated by its diverse population, its creative niche and its commitment to ongoing innovation.
