There’s so many glorious redundant structures in Stoke on Trent, right across the 6 towns. I just hope repurposing them to enhance their heritage is commercially feasible. Such beauty deserves care.

Thanks to everyone who has already followed me on here! I don’t know yet whether I’ll end up using it or not, but in the meantime here’s a pic of my dog Bill who is very cute but very unlucky, and is going to have to have a third operation on his leg next month 😢
