A city about half-way between Birmingham and Manchester. Sir Stanley Matthews, Eddie Hall, Alice Goodwin, Lemmy and Robbie Williams all called the city home.
The city now named Stoke-on-Trent was officially born on the 31st March 1910, with the federation of the Six Towns; Hanley, Burslem, Longton and Stoke-upon-Trent, together with the districts of Tunstall and Fenton into a County Borough of Stoke-on-Trent. It became a city in 1925.
Today Stoke-on-Trent has a population of over 280,0000 and is still the centre of the British ceramic industry and is the largest clayware producer in the world. Alongside two universities; Staffordshire and Keele who between them have almost 10,000 full-time students. Find out more about Staffordshire University and Keele University.
