Burslem is one of the six towns that make up Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire, traditionally regarded as the "mother town" of the Potteries. It sits on a compact hilltop with a well-preserved Victorian centre, characteristic bottle kilns and notable green spaces such as Burslem Park.
Long rooted in the pottery industry, the area still wears its industrial heritage visibly and hosts creative activity around markets, cafés and studios, with landmarks like Burslem School of Art. The ward has experienced post-industrial economic challenges but benefits from community-led regeneration and heritage tourism that are helping to reshape its social and economic outlook.
