Derelict Works - Bournes Bank
This is a former pottery and seems to be defying gravity. The current street view shows that the white part of the building has been demolished. Sites like this give the 'potteries' character but they are inexorably diminishing.
Update November 2016
I have been informed this potbank was built in 1880 for Midwinter Pottery. A section of bottle oven footing survives in the yard. Midwinter Pottery subsequently moved to Burslem but that works has now been demolished.
Andrew Johnson has supplied the following information about the white (or blue and white) building - The white and blue building has been demolished this was formerly called The venue, later renamed Ebony and then the Summerhouse Club. The club was the first place of its kind in Stoke On Trent especially for people who loved reggae and soul music.
There are now plans for the rehabilitation of the surviving buildings (as of 2016).
