Victoria Mill wharf and swing bridge base, Caldon Canal, Stockton brook
The Victoria Mill in Stanley was part of Harrison & Son, reputedly the largest ceramic glaze and colour manufacturers in the world in the 1890s. The glaze ingredients were initially ground into fritt or glass at the company's Phoenix Works in Hanley and transferred to Victoria Mill to be ground "finer than the finest white flour".

Caldon Canal Island, Stanley Moss, Staffordshire
Right smack in the middle of the canal near Doles Bridge (No 27) is this oddity.
It is the remains of a swing bridge which used to carry the track of a light railway which connected with the (now disused) "main" line by the canal towpath off the picture to the right.

Footpath level crossing on the Stoke to Leekbrook Line
This crossing will need to be modified before the railway comes back into use. The track is now leased by Moorland & City Railways, who intend to restore it for quarry and passenger traffic. At the time this picture was taken, the restoration, which started at the Leekbrook end, had progressed to within a mile of this location.
