Smithfield Stoke On Trent - a photo on Flickriver

Smithfield Stoke On Trent

New buildings on the Smithfield developement site, behind the old buildings, including the Bottle Kilns, of what was Smithfield Pottery, Grade II listed buildings since 1987.

Experts calculate that in the heyday of the pottery industry in Stoke-on-Trent there were up to 4,000 bottle kilns with as many as 2,000 still standing in the 1950's.
The Clean Air Act sounded the death-knell for the smoky, coal fired oven as the factories turned to gas and electricity.
There are 47 still standing they all are listed buildings - some are in good condition, having been restored, some are in very poor condition.
