Redcar was historically referred to as "Redscar" due to its association with the nearby coastal features and the red cliffs along the shoreline. The name "scar" is derived from the Old Norse word "skar," meaning a steep or rocky place. Over time, the name evolved into "Redcar," which is the name it is known by today. The original name reflects the area's geographical characteristics and heritage.
