Burslem is often called the 'Mother Town' of the Potteries, being the oldest of the six towns that make up Stoke-on-Trent. It sits on a high point of the city, with the skyline still defined by the red-brick industrial architecture of historical works like Middleport Pottery and the Wedgwood Institute. Geographically, it’s compact and centered around the traditional market place and the Grade II listed Town Hall, which lends the town a more distinct, established character than some of its neighbours. While much of the heavy industry has shifted, the area remains the home of Port Vale FC and is bisected by the Trent and Mersey Canal, which provides a level, green walking route out toward the Cheshire border. It’s a place where the street layout still reflects its Victorian peak, offering a mix of terraced housing and newer pockets of development, all within a few miles of the main retail hub in Hanley and the A500 link road.
