Greenest & largest town in the Potteries. Like Stoke-on-Trent in microcosm - linear, polycentric. Once described as - the town of the long street.

Train to London. 3 trains later everyone has to get off at Bโham and no trains north or south. Utter chaos. What a complete shambles our country has become. Nothing works, nothing is punctual etc itโs like a 3rd world country with an elite cabal skimming off the profits ๐ก๐ก๐ก

The history of Christ Church goes back to 1839, when the first church was erected at a cost of ยฃ2,500. Fenton then contained only a few thousand residents, but as the town grew the parish spread, the mission-church of St. Michael's being erected in 1875 and St. Matthew's in 1882. โ at Stoke-on-Trent, England

Burnham Street: resident estimates 15-20 lorries a day. Street seems to be sinking with the weight of onslaught. Mucky brown river of silt runs from the closed up entrance of Potteries Demolition down onto King Street, then along till it disappears into a drain @SoTCityCouncil โ at Stoke-on-Trent, England

Quietly optimistic about the response to an enquiry regarding expanding Fenton's Christmas lights more extensively across its 3 main thoroughfares - City Road, Victoria Road & King Street, making #Fenton feel like #onetown again. @alanjgerrard @cheryl_gerrard @FentonGlennLP โ at Stoke-on-Trent, England
