Graham Podmore.

Hi, I’m Graham. Born here, brought up here, and still quite happy in Stoke-on-Trent. The parks and pottery sites give me very different reasons to go out. I’m fascinated by the six towns and the way their working history still shows through. I don’t need a grand attraction at every turn.

Graham’s three recommendations

01

Hidden Gems

Middleport Pottery Heritage Trail

The old offices and mould store are what I’d linger over. They make the factory feel like a whole working community rather than an isolated piece of machinery.

02

See & Do

The Potteries Museum & Art Gallery

I’d use the museum for the wider Staffordshire story, after checking what’s accessible during the partial opening. Plan around the available displays rather than old photographs online.

03

Outdoors

Burslem Park

I’d look for the heritage mosaic and terracotta details. They keep the local story going even when you’ve stepped outside the museums.
