Answer:
The six towns of Stoke-on-Trent, collectively referred to as ‘The Potteries’, were the centre of the British pottery industry in the 18th century, with over 300 potworks creating wares at the turn of the 19th century, thanks in no small part to the pioneering work of Josiah Wedgwood.
One pottery to flourish was Burleigh, which today prides itself on being Britain’s last continuously working Victorian pottery. Established in 1851 at the Central Pottery, Burslem, by Messrs Hulme and Booth, it was taken over a decade later by Frederick Rathbone Burgess and William Leigh (hence the name Burleigh), who moved to the newly constructed Middleport Pottery site in 1888.

Middleport was revolutionary for its time, with efficient production processes and improved working conditions. It was known locally as the ‘Seven Oven Works’ due to its three biscuit and four glost bottle ovens.
