| Are these stacks of rods fuel for the kilns? Interestingly similar to the stacks of rods at the broom and brush works in other Aerofilms images. |

I'm a long-time volunteer at Gladstone museum, so I'm pretty well informed as to the industry. I'm sure that these aren't anything to do with firing fuel. I think that they are too long for raw materials for brush manufacturing. I think that they are far more likely to be for the manufacturing of woben crates for the packing of finished ware. |

Longton link: www.thepotteries.org/six_towns/longton.htm The site begins with this quotation: '"Bennett referred to Longton as Longshaw in his Five Town Novels. It is the least mentioned of the Pottery towns in his Five Town novels . Bennett compared the conurbation as being akin to Hell. Pictures of the area during its industrial growth defy belief with smoke pouring from a multitude of chimneys in amongst bottle ovens of various shapes and sizes. The great concentration of these ovens and the situation of Longton being in a slight hollow, made it the most polluted of all the pottery towns." |
