Stoke-on-Trent's six towns and terraced pottery heritage
Stoke-on-Trent is unique in being a federation of six towns — Burslem, Tunstall, Hanley, Stoke, Fenton, and Longton — each with its own character. The dominant property type is the two-up two-down terraced house built for the pottery industry workforce in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Many have solid brick walls and older heating systems, making EPCs common subjects for improvement recommendations. Around 22% of homes are privately rented. The ST postcode area extends well beyond the Potteries to include Newcastle-under-Lyme (ST5), Stafford (ST16/ST17), Stone (ST15), Uttoxeter (ST14), and Leek (ST13).
