The West Midlands city of Stoke-on-Trent (also known simply as ‘Stoke’) is located in Staffordshire, equidistant from Birmingham 45 miles to the south and Manchester to the north. Stoke-on-Trent is an amalgamation of six local towns; Stoke, Tunstall, Burslem, Hanley, Longton and Fenton.
Stoke-on-Trent is famously referred to as The Potteries, having risen to prominence as the centre of the UK’s pottery industry in the 17th century. Stoke-on-Trent is proud of its heritage, with the Potteries Museum & Art Gallery, Middleport Pottery, The Gladstone Pottery Museum and Spode Museum Trust Heritage Centre displaying the area’s rich history in the pottery industry. Residents and visitors alike can have a go at creating their very own pot at World of Wedgwood and The Emma Bridgewater factory. There is also still a thriving pottery industry in the area, and an air of creativity about the city. It’s no wonder that Channel 4 chose Stoke-on-Trent as the location for their hit show, The Great Pottery Throwdown!
Anyone looking to call Stoke-on-Trent home will appreciate the great local attractions such as Trentham Gardens and Alton Towers, scenic woodland and the stunning Staffordshire Peak District on the doorstep, plus handy transport links with the rest of the UK.

I’ve been using Taylormade Finance since 2018, Ian is a fantastic advisor and will always manage to find the best deal around for whatever your circumstances may be! As a lifetime customer Ian will contact me if there is a change in markets that may affect me and advise best course of action - even managed to renegotiate at short notice this year and save me a couple hundred quid per month when rates fell. Excellent service, extremely competent team, they do all the work for you and that peace of mind is priceless!
