I spend a lot of time rummaging through the archives, and I have been finding lots of videos with snippets of Stoke-on-Trent and the surrounding areas in times gone by.
So I have put them all together in one clip.
I haven't captioned where they are, because I thought it would be more fun for you all to try and guess. And to be truthful even I don't know all of them!
Which areas do you recognise?
I personally loved seeing the King and Queen at Stoke Station when it was in its heyday!
It is wonderful to see The Potteries in the past, but not just in photos, in real videos. With real people, just how they were.
