Tunstall is a ward in the northern part of Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, and forms one of the historic towns of The Potteries. It occupies an urban fringe setting with Victorian terraces, council housing and several local green spaces such as Tunstall Park, together with canal and reservoir corridors that give parts of the area a surprisingly leafy feel.

Long associated with the pottery industry, the area still bears industrial heritage in older factory buildings and chimney scars, and it retains a strong local identity with markets, community groups and sports clubs. Like much of the city, Tunstall has seen an economic shift from heavy manufacturing towards retail, light industry and services, with ongoing regeneration efforts aimed at balancing conservation of its ceramics legacy with modern housing and town-centre improvements.
