Behind this door is the home of the Stockton Flyer. It rises out of the top of this small building in the middle of the high street every day at 1pm and the sound of a steam engine can be heard across Stockton.
I love this rusty door; its textures, shapes, and colours are beautiful. It's just a small hint at the magnificent structure that emerges from the top.
The design was inspired by George Stephenson's Locomotive No. 1 which ran on the Stockton - Darlington line. It's a very crazy steampunk looking automaton by Rob Higgs and Keith Newstead.
