AN exhibition exploring the North-East's military history was unveiled yesterday. Defence of the Realm features the work of photographer Stuart McMillan, pictured above, and features 20 military sites, including Redcar, Warrenby, South Gare, Skelton and Brotton. Mr McMillan compiled the exhibition as part of the Imperial War Museum's defence of Britain research project. The images will be on show at Kirkleatham Hall Museum, near Redcar, until Sunday, September 15. Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council's museums curator Phil Philo said: "There has been an amazing amount of research and attention to detail put into these paintings. They are a fascinating look back into the war years and I'm sure the exhibition is going to be very popular over the summer."
