A HISTORY OF LONGTON. J. H. Y. Briggs. University of Keele, Keele. 1985 Reprint ISBN 0903160129 114pp Illustrated Trade Paperback. This copy is in fine, unread condition, bright, white, tight and square, in illustrated card covers as issued. Arnold 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. In 1759 the main road from Derby to Newcastle, through Uttoxeter, was built which gave the town of Longton a boost when the pottery industry began to appear in the town. Small numerous pot works gave the new town a distinctive irregular appearance with pot banks lining the main streets jumbled in and around houses of the workers employed in the ceramic industry. Longton was at the end of a lane which ran from Tunstall to a village at the end of the lane, hence Longton was known as Lane End, and colloquially as 'Neck End'. Until the last decade of the 18th century it was known only for its coal mines and iron works but from the 19thC it developed into a major centre for the production of bone china. Ref LL1 Size: 114pp.
