Construction of Saltburn Pier started in December 1867. In May 1869 the 460m pier opened, with a steamer landing stage at its head. In October 1875 90m was removed from the end of the pier by a gale. A redeveloped pier of 380m (without a boat landing) was opened in 1877. Further damage throughout the 20th century eventually reduced its length to 340m. In 1975 the local council wanted the pier demolished. A campaign saved it and it reopened after a refurbishment in June 1978 with a length of 280m. A further refurbishment led to its reopening as a Grade II* listed structure in July 2001.
