Explore Stoke-on-Trent at your own pace Stoke proper - a square kilometre between the Minster, the Spode works, the station, and the canal - was the engine room of the British ceramics industry. This tour is not about the great potters' families. It is about the throwers and paintresses, the kiln-firers and flint-grinders, the navvies who cut the canal and the boatmen who legged through Harecastle in the dark, the railwaymen who carried the finished ware south and the hotel staff who fed and housed them. It is about Potter's Rot, the workers' cottages Josiah Spode II built at minimum standard in Penkhull Square, the named casualties on the North Staffordshire Railway's war memorial, and the memorial school that Herbert Minton's workers' skills paid for.

AudaTours turns a walk through a city into a story. Our guides bring landmarks to life with the history, the scandals and the detail you would never get from a plaque.

There is no in-person guide. It does not include entry to any building or site along the route. The landmarks on the tour are not affiliated with AudaTours. You need a smartphone with Android 7.0 or later, or iOS 16 or later. Bring headphones and start with a charged phone. Who it suits Solo travellers, couples, families and small groups who would rather explore on their own schedule than follow a guide and a fixed departure time. It suits a first visit, and it suits anyone who has already seen the famous sights and wants to know what actually happened in them.
