The Potteries Shopping Centre
This is the entrance to Hanley's large indoor shopping centre. The clock, although elegant, was disappointingly not showing the right time. Donut kiosks, of the sort seen here behind the clock, seem to have become a feature of many town centres in recent years, even though - to my nose - they exude a sickly unappetising smell that seems to pervade the whole area.

Man of fire, Hanley
Originally built c.1964 by Lewis's to replace their nearby store. When opened Lewis's was the city centre's largest shop.
It was integrated into the £45 million Potteries Shopping Centre which opened on 1st June 1988. The shop was taken over by Owen and Owen, closed in September 1998 and then reopened as Debenhams.
Named by many as "Jack Frost" - the statue was designed by the London sculptor David Wynne. The inscription below it reads:- "Fire is at the root of all things both visible and invisible"
He spent some time in the Potteries looking for inspiration and he said
"..it hit me that the sculpture must have something to do with the great fires which dominate the life of the Potteries...."
The statue is made of anodised aluminium. It is 35 feet high and 28 feet wide, it weighs 1.25 tons.
