- It's amazing whta you can pick up in the local auctions. Among a job lot of old 8mm films I found short clips of Newcastle and Hanley plus the M6 interchange when it was first opened. I presume the films were made in the 1960's. I have compiled the short clips into a 3 minute-long video. Maybe you can spot yourself in them. :-)
An excellent compilation of Clayton road, Newcastle, Hanchurch end of Trentham estate motorway bridge, Hanley etc as I remembered it as being back in the late 60's and early 70's.
Now I live 300 miles away having left in the 80's and the Potteries is but a memory of growing up.
Thanks for rekindling the memories. 👍
Wow. The motorway looks so clean. I remember it being built. Such a shame Stoke is such a shit hole now.
No more a shithole than most cities you need get out more and you will find out.
When England was still England. Pretty much Every single car you see made in England . No litter , everyone smartly dressed , my how things have changed for the worse .
Back then it looked like the kind of place you’d want to pull off the motorway to visit and spend some time.
Stoke-on-Trent was a descent place at one time. Look at it now, a bloody great dump 😞
Thanks, happy days when the roads were less congested.
It looked nice back then. Everything did.
Must have been 1967 or later, the red VW van on the bridge is a T2, these were introduced in 1967.
Nice to see PMT Atlantean double deck buses, new in 1959- 61 105 examples, much better than the ADL hybrids that PMT has now.
Great to see the bustling market in Newcastle,all the way from the guildhall to the Grovesnor sunken roundabout.
The whole of S O T is like many areas a shadow of what it was.
The pits closed, the Michelin, Shelton bar steel works, the ceramic industry has disappeared, sad times.
Thanks for very happy childhood memories.
Great days
Oh my life, this is amazing.Its so real.
Not a plastic bottle or can in sight....... Litter.
What a mess we have become.

Mad to think you could drive all the way down Town Rd to Parliament Row back then. Or pretty much all through Hanley
Everyone is thin!

Times have changed! For the worse!!
