Inside Burslem Pottery
The city was scattered with potteries, which was by far the biggest industry in this area. Now very few remain - even fewer are in use.
This one is being used by Burslem Pottery now - who make art ware.

Stoke-on-Trent City Arms, Fenton Court
Magistrates Clerks Offices, Fenton. See the main building:- http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/344187
Arms were granted to the new county borough in 1912. They were made up of devices previously used by the constituent six towns, although only Burslem actually received a grant to use arms.
Description of the City Arms:
"Argent [silver], a cross gules, fretty or [fretted with gold], between in the first quarter a representation of the Portland Vase; in the second a camel kneeling proper, charged on the body with an escutcheon argent [silver shield], thereon a cross gules [red cross]; in the third an eagle displayed sable; and in the fourth a scythe also proper, on a chief of the second a boar's head erased between two Stafford Knots of the third.
Crest - on a wreath of the colours, a Potter of ancient Egypt at his wheel argent."
