Caldon Canal south-east of Hanley in Stoke-on-Trent
The transformation of many former industrial brown-field sites along this canal is well on the way with housing developments. Occasional "heritage" remnants are "listed" so preserved as a reminder of the area's industrial past.
Behind the wall on the right is a small undeveloped plot (I don't know why) by the housing which has replaced the demolished Johnson's pottery.

New housing by the Caldon Canal near Hanley
This is the Caldon Canal south-west of Botteslow Road Bridge, No 10.
The apartments have been built on the site of demolished old factories. There are many cleared brown-field sites in the area which are earmarked for such development schemes. Since the date of this image (2009) the site on the left has been covered in houses, though the two old bottle kilns have been preserved.

Preserved bottle ovens, Hanley
The former Johnson Bros works. Although the kilns are still standing on cleared land the redevelopment is creeping ever closer. There are other derelict looking works in the distance.
