My own version of Alan Murray Rust's shot
Image The end of a nice summer evening's stroll around Longton. I couldn't resist this "sunset on the potteries" image. I spent 18 months in Stoke but only got out with the camera twice. I did attend regular Thursday night restoration parties at the future Etruria Industrial Museum.

Phoenix Pottery Works, Longton
King Street, Longton.
In 1877, Thomas Forester commenced business at a small manufactory in High Street; and as his business rapidly increased, he took additional premises in Church Street. These he shortly afterwards took down, and built upon their site a new manufactory – the Phoenix Works – which he completed in 1879.
