May Bank is a residential ward just to the north‑east of Newcastle-under-Lyme in Staffordshire, England. It sits close to the boundary with Stoke-on-Trent and is made up of a mix of Victorian terraces, post‑war estates and private housing, with local shops, pubs and small green pockets giving it a suburban, community feel.
Historically the area grew up to house workers for the wider Potteries and light industry, and today retains a strong local identity with community centres, volunteer groups and periodic regeneration work to improve amenities and housing. Good road links to the town centre and neighbouring suburbs, plus easy access to the countryside around Trentham, make it a pragmatic spot for commuters who still want a local neighbourhood atmosphere.
