More photographs of Stoke by Nigel Henderson, this time of the Stoke F.C. parking grounds at Stoke<\/a> on the Whieldon Road, before the A500. I’m not sure why he went there in particular. Perhaps a friend in London, who had gone to a Stoke match, told him he would get good wide views of the Boothen End stand from there? But the stand and its floodlights appear to be some way away, beyond the chain-link fence and gas-holders. Or did something of importance once stand on those parking grounds, perhaps a factory that someone in his family-tree once worked in, or their house? I’ve also tacked on a low-res Potteries.org photo (end) showing the canal directly opposite the entrance to the parking grounds. Doulton Sanitary Potteries Ltd has since been demolished. Apparently it supplied the ceramics for the movie Carry On at Your Convenience<\/em>, and is credited in the film’s titles, though the movie wasn’t filmed there and I’m fairly sure didn’t even appear fleetingly in any establishing shots.<\/p>\n
