Greenest & largest town in the Potteries. Like Stoke-on-Trent in microcosm - linear, polycentric. Once described as - the town of the long street.

Train to London. 3 trains later everyone has to get off at Bโ€™ham and no trains north or south. Utter chaos. What a complete shambles our country has become. Nothing works, nothing is punctual etc itโ€™s like a 3rd world country with an elite cabal skimming off the profits ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ˜ก

Burnham Street: resident estimates 15-20 lorries a day. Street seems to be sinking with the weight of onslaught. Mucky brown river of silt runs from the closed up entrance of Potteries Demolition down onto King Street, then along till it disappears into a drain @SoTCityCouncil โ€“ at Stoke-on-Trent, England

A disaster in the making ๐ŸŒ‹ โ€“ at Stoke-on-Trent, England
The Boundary Works, built by Jacob Marsh (a potter of Toby jugs) in 1819, looks incredibly precarious. If the city isn't watchful it's going to have yet another heritage disaster on its hands... @SoTCityCouncil @AbiBrown1 @Progthrust1 @fslconsult @alanjgerrard @KeithBrymer

Another ceramic conundrum. The maker of this beautiful hand painted bud vase was prolific in the south of the city during the turn of the 19th century.
