  • I made this whilst bored on a summer evening in 2007. My plan was to visit all the towns which make up Stoke-on-Trent in one continuous drive.

    You started the tour with my old local - The Marquis of Granby. Haven't been back in 15 years. It looks a lot cleaner now. Much greener too. Makes me want to go back for a visit. thanks for posting!!

    Pretty cool. I've a friend who lives in the Forsbrook area. I'd definitely have to get used to driving on the left ... and watchng for traffic signs on the *side* of the road, instead of hanging over the road. An interesting tour. Thanks!

    Wow, Hanley has changed so much from 2007 to 2014! Houses around Joiner's Square - gone! Car park opposite the old bus station - gone! Botteslow street - completely changed! The whole of Stoke has changed, tbh. But overall, I bet that drive was a bit of dosh - your car must run on water (or forever-lasting diesel). :P
