City of Stoke-on-Trent, Industrial district in Staffordshire, England.

Six distinct towns form this urban area spanning 36 square miles across the upper valley of the River Trent in west-central England.

The federation of Burslem, Stoke-upon-Trent, Fenton, Hanley, Longton, and Tunstall established the unified city on March 31, 1910.

The Potteries Museum and Art Gallery preserves the region's ceramic heritage through collections of Wedgwood, Royal Doulton, and Spode pottery.

Hanley functions as the main commercial center, connected to other districts through an extensive network of public transportation and major roadways.

The city earned its nickname 'The Potteries' due to centuries of industrial ceramic manufacturing dating back to the 17th century.
