Between 1974 and 1996 most of Cleveland was incorporated into a county of the same name, formed from parts of the North Riding of Yorkshire and County Durham. Unlike the traditional geographic area, the county was formed around the Tees estuary and included lands on both sides of the river. It excluded the southernmost parts of traditional Cleveland, including much of the Cleveland Hills, although the original proposal for this county was much larger and covered the coast down to Whitby.

The Cleveland (Structural Change) Order 1995 and The Cleveland (Further Provision) Order 1995 came into effect on April 1, 1996, and renamed Langbaurgh-on-Tees to Redcar and Cleveland, abolished the County of Cleveland and created four unitary authorities in its place. The effect of the second order was to abolish the county utterly. It is not even retained for ceremonial purposes, with the area being split between the ceremonial counties of Durham and North Yorkshire. More commonly however, the area is now referred to as Tees Valley, which covers the four former Cleveland Unitary Authorities together with Darlington. Darlington was previously part of County Durham for administrative purposes, but became a unitary authority in 1997.

Cleveland has a significant industrial heritage arising from its central role in the 19th century iron boom that led to Middlesbrough growing from a hamlet into a major industrial town in only a few decades. The Cleveland Hills, in the southern part of the district, were key suppliers of the ironstone that was essential to the running of the blast furnaces alongside the River Tees. Middlesbrough's Teesport is still one of the United Kingdom's main ports and the area between Middlesbrough and Redcar is still populated by many heavy industrial plants, although this is much reduced from its 20th century peak.

The area is extremely varied geographically. The Tees estuary is highly industrialised and urbanised. Much of the remainder of the lowland parts of Cleveland is farmland. East Cleveland marks the northern end of the chain of cliffs that runs along the North Yorkshire Heritage Coast. South Cleveland is extremely hilly, forming the escarpment of the North York Moors. One of the best known symbols of Cleveland is the distinctive hill of Roseberry Topping, which overlooks Newton-under-Roseberry on the Great Ayton to Guisborough road. Its original roughly conical form was undercut by extensive mining, giving it a jagged appearance that many have thought reminiscent of the Matterhorn mountain.
