Looking east from near Newport Lane Bridge (No 123) as the canal meanders towards Etruria, Stoke-on-Trent and Stone. The white marker past those large trees on the left is at the junction with the former Burslem Canal. Following a breach in 1961 it was closed, then filled in later. There are proposals to restore it.
