Lost Film Strips

Can You Help Trace Them?

North Staffordshire Heritage would like to celebrate the City of Stoke-on-Trent’s Centenary by showing a series of film strips.

The film strips were made by local schools in 1960. They celebrated the 50th anniversary of the amalgamation of the six towns, which created the County Borough of Stoke-on-Trent.

We have the film strip, The Township of Tunstall, made by Highgate Secondary School. The filmstrips about Burslem, Hanley, Stoke-upon-Trent, Fenton and Longton are missing.

If you can help us trace them, please get in touch with northstaffordshireheritage@outlook.com

Can You Help Trace These Film Strips

We hope to show a series of film strips during Stoke-on-Trent’s Centenary Year. Schools in the six towns made these film strips in 1960 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the County Borough of Stoke-on-Trent’s creation.

North Staffordshire Heritage has the scripts for all these film strips. But we only have one film strip, the Township of Tunstall, made by Highgate Secondary School.

The film strips about Burslem, Hanley, Stoke-upon-Trent, Fenton and Longton are missing. If you can help us trace them, please email northstaffordshireheritage@outlook.com

The town Bennett forgot

Do you think Fenton is Stoke-on-Trent’s forgotten town? We believe Fenton’s town hall and Christ Church will help make North Staffordshire’s Industrial Landscape a World Heritage Site.

Fenton is called Stoke-on-Trent’s Forgotten Town
