Longton: Images of England by Don Henshall

Over 200 Archive Photographs of Longton's Pottery Heritage

Longton: Images of England by Don Henshall is a compelling photographic record of one of the Six Towns of Stoke-on-Trent — the area long known locally as the ‘Neck End’. Longton grew from two small villages into a thriving pottery town, and this book traces that remarkable transformation through more than 200 archive photographs.

From the kilns and potbanks that defined its skyline to the streets, people, and community life that gave it character, Henshall's carefully selected images bring Longton's past vividly to life. An essential volume for anyone with roots in Longton or a love of Potteries history.
