EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from c1910 showcases the bustling town of Newcastle-Under-Lyme in Staffordshire, England. The creator remains unknown, but their lens captured a snapshot of this vibrant center of industry during the early 20th century. Newcastle-Under-Lyme proudly stood at the heart of the Potteries region, renowned for its production of exquisite earthenware and stoneware. This thriving trade was complemented by other flourishing industries such as army clothing manufacturing, paper production, and ironworks. With a population reaching 20,200 residents at that time, this town was truly a hub of activity. The ceramic jug featured in the foreground serves as a symbol of Staffordshire's rich heritage in pottery craftsmanship. Its presence reminds us that this area has long been associated with producing fine ceramics that have garnered international acclaim. This remarkable photograph is part of "The Counties of England - A Geographical Game: 4th Series" collection published by Jaques & Son Ltd. , London. It offers us an invaluable glimpse into both the geography and history surrounding Newcastle-Under-Lyme during this era. As we admire this striking image captured over a century ago, let it transport us back to an era when skilled artisans shaped clay into works of art while contributing to the economic prosperity and cultural legacy of their community.
