Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DJ7BA3 - The original business was renamed Peter Walker & Son. Andrew further expanded the business south, building new brewing facilities in both Warrington (Walkers of Warrington, founded in 1864), and Burton.
In 1879, on the death of his father, Andrew gained control of the business, and in 1890 converted the private company into the publicly listed Peter Walker & Son Warrington & Burton Ltd. The later Sir Andrew pioneered many of the innovations in brewing production, beer distribution and pub management that we take for granted today, including patenting the Burton Union System. The group had a chain of pubs in the Liverpool and the north west of England, many of which today still carry the slogan Walkers Warrington Ale in their frosted glass.
After his death in 1893, with his son William now chairman, the company merged with Cains Brewery in 1921, and then Tetley's Brewery of Leeds in 1960, to form Tetley Walker. This company was one of the founding partners of Allied Breweries.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHR4H - Etruria is a suburb of Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, England.
Etruria was the fourth and penultimate site for the Wedgwood pottery business. Josiah Wedgwood, who was previously based in Burslem, opened his new works in 1769. It was named after the Italian district of Etruria, home of the Etruscan people who were renowned for their artistic products. The site covered 350 acres (140 ha) and was next to the Trent and Mersey Canal. As well as Wedgwood's home, Etruria Hall, it included the Etruria Works which remained in use by the Wedgwood enterprise until 1950. The Wedgwood factory is now in Barlaston, a village about six miles to the south of the Etruria site.
Etruria Hall was the site of the substantial invention of photography by Thomas Wedgwood in the 1790s.
After Wedgwood
Much of Etruria became derelict with the move of Wedgwood after the Second World War and the subsequent closure of the nearby Shelton Bar steelworks. Large-scale regeneration began in the 1980s with the Stoke-on-Trent Garden Festival.
Etruria is home to the Etruria Industrial Museum, a scheduled ancient monument, which includes a working steam engine called Princess. The museum buildings were originally a bone and flint mill built in 1857 to grind materials for the pottery industry. Inside visitors can see displays on the history of the site and original machinery. On the first weekend of each month the museum's 1903 coal-fired boiler provides steam to operate Princess which then turns the grinding machinery.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHRB5 - Jiggering and jolleying: These operations are carried out on the potter's wheel and allow the time taken to bring wares to a standardized form to be reduced. Jiggering is the operation of bringing a shaped tool into contact with the plastic clay of a piece under construction, the piece itself being set on a rotating plaster mould on the wheel.
The jigger tool shapes one face while the mould shapes the other. Jiggering is used only in the production of flat wares, such as plates, but a similar operation, jolleying, is used in the production of hollow-wares such as cups.
Jiggering and jolleying have been used in the production of pottery since at least the 18th century. In large-scale factory production, jiggering and jolleying are usually automated, which allows the operations to be carried out by semi-skilled labour.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHRN5 - Interior view of the historic colour room at Gladstone Pottery Museum in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, showing shelves filled with old labelled jars and containers used for ceramic colours, stains, pigments and glaze materials. The black, grey, cream and brown storage pots, worn paper labels and utilitarian wooden shelving give the image a strong documentary feel, recording the practical back-room materials behind Staffordshire pottery decoration. Visible labels appear to include colour names and coded recipes, suggesting the careful organisation needed by decorators, paintresses, gilders and colour room workers in a busy potbank. Gladstone Pottery Museum is a preserved Victorian pottery factory on Uttoxeter Road, Longton, and its displays interpret the industrial processes that made Stoke-on-Trent internationally known as The Potteries. The site is associated with bottle ovens, kilns, workshops, decorating rooms and the everyday labour of ceramic production, from clay preparation and firing to glazing, colour, enamel and gilding. This image is useful for editorial and commercial themes around British ceramics, Staffordshire industry, museum collections, craft skills, heritage conservation, industrial archaeology, social history, factory interiors, material culture, pottery design, ceramic chemistry and traditional trades. The colour room shows that the success of tableware and decorative pottery depended not only on kilns and clay, but on specialist knowledge of colours, oxides, recipes and finishes. The muted indoor light, dusty shelves and ageing jars create an atmospheric visual for articles about Longton heritage, Stoke tourism, manufacturing history, education, preservation and the fragile survival of workshop objects. It can also support features on hand decoration, pottery painting, women's work in ceramics, archives of industrial knowledge and the wider story of how North Staffordshire became a global centre for ceramic manufacture.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHRPN - Close-up detail of an aged paper label on a dark glazed ceramic colour jar in the historic colour room at Gladstone Pottery Museum, Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire. The worn label appears to read Water Green 1025, with the word PASTE partly visible below, suggesting a stored ceramic colour, stain, glaze ingredient or decorating material used in pottery production. The cracked paper, faded stencilled lettering, dark reflective jar surface and subdued indoor light give the image a strong documentary quality, concentrating attention on the everyday workshop records and materials behind Staffordshire ceramics. Gladstone Pottery Museum is a preserved Victorian pottery factory on Uttoxeter Road in Longton, part of the historic Potteries district of Stoke-on-Trent. Its displays interpret the labour, craft and industrial processes behind pottery manufacture, including clay preparation, throwing, moulding, firing, decorating, colour and gilding. This image is commercially useful for editorial features on British ceramics, ceramic pigments, pottery colour chemistry, glaze recipes, industrial heritage, museum collections, craft skills, material culture, factory interiors, conservation, local history and traditional trades. The jar label is a small but telling object, showing how colours and recipes were identified, stored and controlled within a working potbank. It can support stories about ceramic design, hand decoration, pottery painting, paintresses, colour room workers, Clarice Cliff context, Stoke tourism, Longton heritage and the preservation of specialist industrial knowledge. The close crop removes wider context and makes the image suitable as an atmospheric background or detail shot for articles about pigments, historic workshops, archive materials, industrial archaeology and the way North Staffordshire became internationally known for pottery and ceramic manufacture.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHRRJ - Close-up detail of a worn paper label reading Pink 1375 on a ceramic colour jar in the historic colour room at Gladstone Pottery Museum, Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire. The cracked, aged label, black stencilled lettering and dark glazed storage vessel give the photograph a strong documentary feel, showing the practical materials behind pottery decoration rather than the finished ware. The image is useful for editorial and commercial themes around Staffordshire ceramics, The Potteries, colour mixing, ceramic stains, pigments, oxides, glaze ingredients, craft skills, industrial heritage, museum collections, factory interiors and the working culture of a traditional potbank. Gladstone Pottery Museum is a preserved Victorian pottery factory on Uttoxeter Road in Longton, part of Stoke-on-Trent's internationally known ceramics landscape. The museum's displays interpret the processes and supporting rooms that helped make pottery production possible, including throwing, moulding, decorating, firing, colour and gilding. This image concentrates on a small but important object: a labelled colour container, probably once used to identify or store a particular pink ceramic decorating colour or pigment. The torn paper, creases, stains and utilitarian typography suggest repeated workshop use, careful storage and the everyday knowledge of decorators, painters and colour room workers. It can support articles on British manufacturing history, pottery design, ceramic chemistry, women's work in ceramics, Clarice Cliff context, museum conservation, material culture, education, heritage tourism and North Staffordshire industrial archaeology. The close crop, muted indoor light and absence of people make it flexible as an atmospheric background image for stories about colour recipes, factory records, historic craft processes, traditional trades, local identity and the preservation of workshop objects that explain how the Potteries became a global centre for ceramics.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHRT7 - Interior detail of the historic colour room at Gladstone Pottery Museum in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, showing rows of labelled ceramic colour jars stored on wooden shelving. The black, grey, cream and brown containers, worn paper labels and dusty setting evoke the working world of a Staffordshire potbank, where colours, stains, oxides and decorating materials were part of making and finishing pottery. Visible labels appear to include colour names such as celeste, cobalt blue and pink, linking the image with ceramic decoration, glaze preparation and the specialist materials used by decorators and painters. Gladstone Pottery Museum is a preserved Victorian pottery factory on Uttoxeter Road, Longton, and its displays explain the jobs and rooms that supported production, from clay preparation and throwing to firing, decorating, colour and gilding. This image is useful for editorial and commercial themes around Stoke-on-Trent ceramics, The Potteries, industrial heritage, museum collections, craft skills, British manufacturing, pigment storage, colour chemistry, pottery design, ceramic art, factory interiors, heritage conservation and educational interpretation. The shelves suggest the careful organisation and practical knowledge behind mass-produced tableware, sanitary ware and decorative ceramics, where colour recipes and materials could be vital to a factory's identity and output. The subdued indoor light, utilitarian shelving and aged containers give the photograph a strong documentary feel, suitable for features about Victorian industry, social history, craft labour, museum learning, traditional trades and the cultural legacy of North Staffordshire. It can also support stories about Clarice Cliff, ceramic decoration, colour in design, pottery painting, artisan skills, industrial archaeology, tourism in Stoke-on-Trent and the preservation of workshop objects that help explain how the Potteries became internationally known for ceramics.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHTMD - Portrait view of the historic bottle kilns at Gladstone Pottery Museum in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, a preserved Victorian pottery works in the heart of the Potteries. The photograph shows the distinctive cone-shaped brick bottle ovens rising above a cobbled yard, with warm red brick walls, green painted doors, wooden railings, chimney stacks, saggar containers and pottery yard details creating a strong sense of industrial heritage. The sky is dark and overcast, with dramatic cloud and subdued light giving the scene a moody atmosphere suited to heritage, tourism and history features. Gladstone Pottery Museum is housed in a former coal-fired pottery factory and is known for its surviving bottle ovens, which are among the most powerful visual symbols of Stoke-on-Trent's ceramics industry. The museum explains the skills and working conditions behind pottery production, including clay preparation, throwing, moulding, decorating, firing and the use of saggars to protect ware inside kilns. This image is highly relevant for editorial and commercial use on Stoke-on-Trent, Longton, Staffordshire tourism, ceramic manufacturing, industrial archaeology, Victorian factories, working museums, craft skills, heritage conservation, regeneration, local identity and the story of the Six Towns. Bottle kilns once dominated the skyline of North Staffordshire, but surviving examples are now important listed heritage structures. Gladstone is listed by Stoke museums at Uttoxeter Road, Longton, and specialist bottle oven records identify the site as having four updraught bottle ovens and a muffle kiln within the Longton Conservation Area. The vertical composition, strong architectural forms and textured brickwork make the image useful for travel guides, educational publishing, museum promotion, British industrial history, ceramics features, pottery design, kiln technology, craft tourism and stories about preserving the built legacy of the Staffordshire Potteries.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHRXT - The mosaic is built on a low brick plinth. The structure has a breeze block support and makes use of recycled Victorian blue bricks as well as slate for the seats on either side.
The whole structure is faced in ceramic mosaics, pieces from local ceramic companies' products, glass beads, and tiles.
A number of themes have been incorporated into the design, including animals and plants indigenous to the area, a picture of the church, together with mouldings of heads and other features from gravestones and monuments in the churchyard, images of the traditional coal and bottle kilns that made the city famous, as well as high-tech industries, a tribute to Sir Stanley Matthews, whose funeral service was held at the Church, and a depiction of the Trent and Mersey Canal merging into the Sea of Galilee and then into the River Trent as it wraps round the base of the mosaic, unifying the design for the whole structure. Within this ribbon of mosaic, ammonites and different varieties of fish are depicted.
On the front of the bench, facing away from the church, are plaques depicting St Peter's Church and School, interspersed with heads, both European and Asian. The base of the seat features an image of two men in a boat, with a mast in the shape of an upside-down cross and two crossed keys (both emblems of St Peter, to whom the nearby church is dedicated).
The wildlife depicted on the right hand end of the bench includes a bat with outstretched wings, a squirrel, a rabbit, a frog, a snail, a fox, a butterfly, a robin, a blackbird, a magpie, a hedgehog and a wren.
The back of the bench celebrates the industrial heritage of Stoke on Trent. Its designs includes plaques featuring men in flat caps carrying pots to the kiln on wooden boards, bottle kilns, pit winding gear and factory chimneys. These are interspersed with smaller pieces commemorating the pottery produced in the area. Below the seat, the central design is of two cartoon-like figures in a canal barge.

Burton upon Trent, also known as Burton-on-Trent or simply Burton, is a large town straddling the River Trent in the east of Staffordshire, England. Its associated adjective is 'Burtonian'.
Burton is best known for its brewing heritage, home to over a dozen breweries in its heyday. It originally grew up around Burton-on-Trent Abbey, the monastery of St. Modwen, and had grown into a busy market town by the early modern period. While Burton's great bridge over the Trent was in poor repair by the early 16th century it served as 'a comen passage to and fro many countries to the grett releff and comfort of travellyng people', according to the abbot. The town, which had an estimated population of 64,449 (2001 Census), lies within the National Forest.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHRCT - A George Jennings Closet of the Century water closet on display at Gladstone Pottery Museum in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, showing the overlap between Victorian sanitary engineering, ceramic manufacturing and everyday social history. The white glazed ceramic toilet bowl carries red lettering reading The Closet of the Century and George Jennings Patent, Stangate, London , with pipework and a flush handle visible beside the museum exhibit. Jennings was an important nineteenth century sanitary ware supplier and innovator, associated with public lavatories, improved water closet design and the wider Victorian movement towards cleaner towns, better drainage and public health reform. The Science Museum notes that models of Jennings' patent water closets were made from earthenware, metal and mahogany and may have been used as sales models during the International Health Exhibitions of the 1890s. This photograph has strong editorial and commercial value for stories about toilet history, public health, sanitation, Victorian invention, bathroom design, plumbing heritage, museum collections, ceramics, industrial archaeology and Stoke-on-Trent's Potteries heritage. Gladstone Pottery Museum, based in the historic pottery district of Longton, preserves bottle ovens, workshops and displays linked to the city's ceramic industry, making it a fitting location for an object that connects ceramic production with the history of domestic and public hygiene. The image can illustrate articles on spending a penny , public conveniences, 19th century urban reform, antique sanitary ware, porcelain toilets, historic bathroom fittings, design history and the humour as well as seriousness of lavatory culture. The close-up composition, visible maker's mark, museum context and unusual subject make it especially useful for heritage features, educational publishing, quirky travel articles, social history blogs and museum guide material.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHTGN - Portrait view of the historic bottle kilns at Gladstone Pottery Museum in Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, a preserved Victorian pottery works in the heart of the Potteries. The photograph shows the distinctive cone-shaped brick bottle ovens rising above a cobbled yard, with warm red brick walls, green painted doors, wooden railings, chimney stacks, saggar containers and pottery yard details creating a strong sense of industrial heritage. The sky is dark and overcast, with dramatic cloud and subdued light giving the scene a moody atmosphere suited to heritage, tourism and history features. Gladstone Pottery Museum is housed in a former coal-fired pottery factory and is known for its surviving bottle ovens, which are among the most powerful visual symbols of Stoke-on-Trent's ceramics industry. The museum explains the skills and working conditions behind pottery production, including clay preparation, throwing, moulding, decorating, firing and the use of saggars to protect ware inside kilns. This image is highly relevant for editorial and commercial use on Stoke-on-Trent, Longton, Staffordshire tourism, ceramic manufacturing, industrial archaeology, Victorian factories, working museums, craft skills, heritage conservation, regeneration, local identity and the story of the Six Towns. Bottle kilns once dominated the skyline of North Staffordshire, but surviving examples are now important listed heritage structures. Gladstone is listed by Stoke museums at Uttoxeter Road, Longton, and specialist bottle oven records identify the site as having four updraught bottle ovens and a muffle kiln within the Longton Conservation Area. The vertical composition, strong architectural forms and textured brickwork make the image useful for travel guides, educational publishing, museum promotion, British industrial history, ceramics features, pottery design, kiln technology, craft tourism and stories about preserving the built legacy of the Staffordshire Potteries.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DBHR0H - Etruria Industrial Museum is the last steam-powered potters' mill in Britain. The mill is ˜in steam' several times a year when the 1903 boiler is fired and historic machinery can be seen working. Situated in a pleasant location at the junction of the Trent & Mersey, and Caldon Canals the museum is also a perfect stop-off for walkers, cyclists and boaters.
Although the museum currently operates as part of Stoke-on-Trent City Council's Museum Service, the Friends of Etruria Industrial Museum “ a group of enthusiastic supporters and volunteers “ have decided to set up a small charity to help preserve and develop Etruria Industrial Museum for the benefit of the public
