Stone attractions |
|
 Stone is in the county of Staffordshire, where beautiful
countryside, historic houses and industrial heritage make it
a county worth exploring. The six north Staffordshire towns of
Tunstall, Burslem, Hanley, Fenton , Longton and Stoke - now all
incorporated into the city of Stoke-on-Trent - have produced
some of the finest pottery in the world during the last 300 years.
