Gladstone Pottery Museum
Constructed around Stoke's last remaining bottle kiln, this evocative museum has an authentic, working Victorian pottery factory where skilled potters talk to visitors. Those of a scatological bent will enjoy the Flushed With Pride exhibition, outlining the life of the toilet from chamber pots and privy holes (complete with pong!) to modern conveniences.

Potteries Museum & Art Gallery
This mu- seum houses an extensive ceramics display, from Toby jugs and jasperware to outrageous ornamental pieces like the Minton Peacock. You can also see treasures from the Staffordshire hoard, displays on the Spitfire fighter plane (created by the Stoke-born aviator Reginald Mitchell) and artworks by TS Lowry and Sir Henry Moore.
