    Walk up Parliament Row to Market Square and The Potteries Shopping Centre, looping back onto Market Square and Tontine Square before heading down to Hanley Town Hall & War Memorial. Finishing off down Piccadilly towards Potteries Museum & Art Gallery.

    Nothing in town centres these days shame to see towns die out.

      They have a designer shop in the potteries. Every jackets a thousand pounds each. Next to rough and Ruby the youth club where kids have about a 5er.
      I don't understand the potteries town planning.
      Empty units above shops and homeless people everywhere and new immigration to complicate our already multi ethnic transient working class, hunger games competition
      I'm sure the people in the grand jackets have a plan
      An adgenda for the place
      But looks like I got bombed out and replaced by big chains
      Hearts gone out the place
      Everywhere there was music once x

    Stoke-on-Trent and Newcastle Borough Council have a lot to answer for. What's the point in having pretty pavements if they've forced all the motorists out of the town centre to shop? Go down the road to Festival Park and the retail parks and supermarket are fairly bustling. Yes some big box retailers have gone under or online, but once upon a time you could go in to Hanley town centre and actually shop.

    I’m impressed I have seen back streets and they looked dirty rundown The main roads and shopping area looks good banks still open etc but not many people shopping because a lot of the shops have gone it used to be busy maybe it was Sunday

    I live in Stoke-On-Trent but never go to Hanley. Maybe I've been into the city centre once or twice in the last 15 years or so? But as a kid it was a buzzing place and we're only talking 20 years ago! It sickens me to see the amount of stores that are now bookies/slots/casinos. I never really understood how grim Stoke-On-Trent is until I saw it compared to big cities like Manchester. It's a ghost town in comparison and I don't really believe it will ever get better without some sort of revolutionary plan.

    • @scenicrouteyt
      @scenicrouteyt  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It’s not only Stoke that is this way, it’s an issue across all UK high streets that I visit.
      Seems most of shopping is now done online so stores can’t stay open.
      Only things around are bookies, barbers and takeaways

    • @ShellysAshes
      @ShellysAshes 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @@scenicrouteyt Ye I think online shopping has killed all the centres of medium sized places like stoke. It's only big places that still thrive because they have so much going on that people are drawn to those places for many more reasons than retail. In fact it's created a drain-effect in that, as Hanley has demised then more and more people from stoke will catch the train to manchester for the day instead of going to Hanley; so it's a double-edged sword.

    • @scenicrouteyt
      @scenicrouteyt  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @ShellysAshes yeah that makes sense, it’s such a shame.
      I live in a tiny little village now and one of my favourite things is the sense of community, people use local businesses and spend their money with other people in the village.
      This unfortunately doesn’t exist anymore in towns.

      If you have only been into the city centre once or twice a week you cant have an opinion, and its the likes of you that have contributed to it being like it is.

    Why do town centres get rid of roads and replace them with paved walkway things that cars can still drive on? 🤔
