About Stoke
The city now named Stoke-on-Trent was officially born on the 31st March 1910, with the Federation of the Six Towns. A lot has changed since then and as a result of regeneration by the local authority and their partners, there is a real air of positive change in Stoke-on-Trent, the city that is changing rapidly.
Home to 240,000 people, the city affectionately known as 'The Potteries', has been transformed, with millions of pounds invested to revitalise and improve all aspects of life in the city. Museums, art galleries, shops, restaurants and bars offer an excellent range of entertainment and the city's heritage is well represented by visitor centres and factory shops of leading pottery firms. If you want to explore a bit more the Staffordshire countryside is within easy reach of the city and is home to Alton Towers and the Foxfield and the Churnet Valley steam railways. For ramblers the dramatic scenery of the Peak District National Park sits on Stoke-on-Trent's outskirts.
Today, Stoke-on-Trent is also one of the top 100 business locations in the UK. The city is situated halfway between Manchester and Birmingham at the northern edge of the West Midlands and has excellent access to the motorway network. Stoke-on-Trent is a living, working city with a vibrant culture and friendly people. It is a city that offers a high quality of life at a low cost of living. Stoke has a wide choice of good quality homes in attractive locations to meet the needs, budgets and expectations of both current and future residents.
2009 has seen Stoke City Football Club successfully complete their first ever season in the Premiership and first in the top flight in over twenty years - a sure sign of the city's growing confidence and ability to attract investment.
More importantly, Stoke-on-Trent is a city with a proud past and a very exciting future.
