  • Stoke-On-Trent (Uk) Policy Brief #3 • Compact Connected City
    STOKE-ON-TRENT (UK) POLICY BRIEF #3 • COMPACT CONNECTED CITY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This policy brief displays a successful compact and connected city solution – the consolidation of Staffordshire University into a distinct University Quarter – that has been implemented in Stoke-on-Trent – a medium-size polycentric industrial city in central England1, coping with population loss. Building on local knowledge and stakeholders’ experiences, it shows how better integration of local knowledge infrastructure can improve the compactness and connectivity of the city. It reveals a number of conditions to make it happen. The key lesson is that achieving compactness and connectivity depends on building unique university expertise, meeting the current and future requirements, and aspirations of the academic staff, students, and visitors, and on providing good learning, teaching, and everyday life experience. INTRODUCTION For a city of its size, Stoke-on-Trent has rather sound knowledge infrastructure, being home to four institutions of further and higher education. They include Staffordshire University (14,910 students in total), Stoke-on-Trent College (17,000 students), the City of Stoke-on-Trent Sixth Form College (1,800 students), and Royal Stoke University Hospital, a teaching and research body affiliated with Keele University School of Medicine (750 students). The University of Keele itself (with 10,600 students in total) is located approximately 4 miles (7 km) west of Stoke. These many advantages notwithstanding, until recently, the city had not been able fully to explore and utilise its knowledge base for urban regeneration. For decades, this heavily industrialised urban area has struggled with both attracting potential students and retaining fresh graduates.

  • Advisory Visit River Trent, Stoke-On-Trent October 2014
    Advisory Visit River Trent, Stoke-on-Trent October 2014 Introduction This report is the output of a site visit undertaken by Tim Jacklin of the Wild Trout Trust (WTT) to the River Trent in Stoke on Trent on 17th October, 2014. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Liz Horton and Nick Mott of Staffordshire Wildlife Trust (SWT) and subsequent discussion with (and addition of diagrams by) Paul Gaskell of WTT. SWT are the catchment hosts for the Staffordshire Trent Valley area under the government’s Catchment Based Approach to the Water Framework Directive (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/catchment-based-approach- improving-the-quality-of-our-water-environment). This advisory visit focussed on areas of the urban River Trent where significant lengths of the river are in single ownership, for example the City Council. Normal convention is applied throughout the report with respect to bank identification, i.e. the banks are designated left hand bank (LHB) or right hand bank (RHB) whilst looking downstream. 1.0 Area Overview Stoke on Trent is located on the headwaters of the River Trent, the source of the river being a short distance north of the city on Biddulph Moor. The river flows south from its source, is impounded by Knypersley Reservoir, then enters the urban area at Norton Green and Milton. Tributaries within the city include Ford Green Brook (confluence at National Grid Reference SJ90404960), Fowlea Brook (confluence SJ88004500 approximately) and Lyme Brook (confluence SJ86504250). Other small tributaries include Causley Brook, Chitlings Brook, Adderley Green Brook, Bagnall Brook, Barnfield Brook, Scotia Brook, Longton Brook, and Longton Cockster Brook.

    Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2012 with funding from University of Toronto http://archive.org/details/staffordshirepotOOwedg STAFFORDSHIRE POTTERY AND ITS HISTORY STAFFORDSHIRE POTTERY AND ITS HISTORY By JOSIAH C. WEDGWOOD, M.P., C.C. Hon. Sec. of the William Salt Archaeological Society. LONDON SAMPSON LOW, MARSTON & CO. LTD. kon Si 710620 DEDICATED TO MY CONSTITUENTS, WHO DO THE WORK CONTENTS Chapter I. The Creation of the Potteries. II. A Peasant Industry. III. Elersand Art. IV. The Salt Glaze Potters. V. The Beginning of the Factory. VI. Wedgwood and Cream Colour. VII. The End of the Eighteenth Century. VIII. Spode and Blue Printing. IX. Methodism and the Capitalists. X. Steam Power and Strikes. XI. Minton Tiles and China. XII. Modern Men and Methods. vy PREFACE THIS account of the potting industry in North Staffordshire will be of interest chiefly to the people of North Stafford- shire. They and their fathers before them have grown up with, lived with, made and developed the English pottery trade. The pot-bank and the shard ruck are, to them, as familiar, and as full of old associations, as the cowshed to the countryman or the nets along the links to the fishing popula- tion. To them any history of the development of their industry will be welcome. But potting is such a specialized industry, so confined to and associated with North Stafford- shire, that it is possible to study very clearly in the case of this industry the cause of its localization, and its gradual change from a home to a factory business.

  • Will the Real William Henshall Please Stand Up? by Paul Tubb
    UK Belleek Collectors’ Group Newsletter 26/3 October 2005 Will the real William Henshall please stand up? By Paul Tubb Henshall Basket (first period) As most of you know by now, I have an interest in census returns arising from the use I can make of them whilst pursuing our family history. My wife Pat suggested that we use our current subscription to ancestry.co.uk to look for information on the various people who went over to Belleek from Stoke in the early years of our pottery. This website allows searches to be made of all the UK census returns from 1861 to 1901 inclusive, through an index which, in spite of some quite peculiar spellings engendered by the indexers, should enable us to follow a person or family through these fifty years at ten year intervals, provided of course that they remain within England or Wales. This availability saves us from having to visit the Family Records Centre in London to wind on the microfilm in the hope of finding the entries we need, which is how we have found most of our family history records in the past. The index, even given its quirks and inaccuracies, enables the kind of searches we have made about the Stoke potters to be done much more quickly and inexpensively. We used the list of names from Lady Marion Langham’s book and the brief details of their lives that we could glean from that and other sources. We have not yet exhausted all such names and decided to firstly concentrate on the better known names such as Henshall, Gallimore, Slater, Poole etc.
