Middlesbrough and its surrounding towns, including West Hartlepool and Darlington all offer a wide range of independent toy shops that sell everything from the traditional to the latest trendy gadget or game. Games Workshop in Dundas Street is always a busy place, especially during their weekend war gaming events.
Middlesbrough games shops, nursery shops and model shops can all be hunted down in the town and surrounding areas. Whilst the modern town shopping centres are home to plenty of toy selling multiple retailers, it’s the independent toy shops like Parkway Games or The Nursery that help to give the town an individual character.
