Welcome to Burslem

Burslem is a town located in the county of Staffordshire, England. It is one of the six towns that make up the city of Stoke-on-Trent. Burslem is known for its rich history in the pottery industry, which dates back to the 17th century. The town was once home to many famous pottery manufacturers, including Wedgwood, Doulton, and Spode. Today, Burslem is still a hub for pottery production, with many independent potters and artists operating in the area.

In addition to its pottery heritage, Burslem is also home to many historic buildings and landmarks. The town's market square is a popular destination for visitors, with its impressive clock tower and historic market hall. Other notable landmarks include the Burslem School of Art, which was founded in 1853 and is still in operation today, and the Old Town Hall, which dates back to the 19th century.

Despite its rich history, Burslem has faced many challenges in recent years. The town has struggled with high levels of unemployment and poverty, and many of its historic buildings have fallen into disrepair. However, there are signs of hope for the future, with ongoing efforts to revitalize the town and attract new businesses and investment. With its unique heritage and strong sense of community, Burslem remains a fascinating and important part of Staffordshire's history and culture.
