  • Companies Referred to in the Ceramic and Allied Trades Union Collection
    Companies referred to in the Ceramic and Allied Trades Union Collection Note - The following is a list of the companies which can be clearly identified in the CATU archive without any risk of confusion, the evidence coming from headed letter paper or something equally unassailable. This list is for information only. We can not retrieve documents from the collection from this list as the documents are spread throughout the collection in different files and have not been indexed. Many documents in the archive are much less clear cut (hand written notes, surveys etc) and it is not always easy to identify precisely which company is being referred to. One frequent potential source of confusion is that potbanks often had their own names, and these may sometimes look like company names. In practice, potbanks could change hands or be divided between more than one company. List of Companies in alphabetical order A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P R S T V W A Wm.

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.

Responses I don’t understand your thinking in increasing car park charges during a period when people have less money than ever, all you end up doing is pushing people to shop outside stoke as there parking charges are lower and have the same shops, it’s no wonder our city is dyeing with this type of thinking. It’s time the people at the top realised the days of large amounts of money available from big business has gone and a new plan needs to be formulated instead of chasing dreams that will never happen due to overcharging. We need to support the business that are here now by promoting a cost effective car parking system and then encourage small business to develop as these are the big business of the future and stop chasing business that don’t want to invest in us all we are doing is over charging for car parking and discouraging people for coming to our city. Scraping the second Civic Centre would prevent the “increase in the on-going revenue costs of operating its buildings (additional costs in 2015/16 are £7.9m falling to £2.8m by 2018/19 and to £2.2m by 2021/22)” recently reported and if the sites don't sell and car parking doesn't generate the income envisaged that could the on-going costs remain at £7.9m for foreseeable future.

However, members of the family have been active potters for two centuries, since the rise of the Staffordshire potteries. In 1774 the brothers Michael and Thomas Shelley set up adjoining works on land where the Gladstone Pottery Museum now stands in Longton. Of their sons, John, Thomas, and William are known to have become potters. Two generations later, after a series of unsuccessful partnerships, it was Joseph Ball Shelley (1836 - 1896) who joined the enterprise which was to create the modern name of Shelley.
