Impressive town hall but not in the city centre.

The Town Hall on Glebe Street, Stoke, Stoke-on-Trent. sits on the outskirts of the town centre and beside the new civic centre, which can be seen to the right. The town centre of Stoke-on-Trent has for many years been Hanley, hence the title.
Designed by Henry Ward and built in 1834, the original central section was enlarged with the addition of the two wings, one in 1842 and the other around 1850.
The Twown Hall sits opposite Stoke Minster (Saint Peter ad Vincula) and is close to Stoke railway station.
This building is grade II listed.
The town of Stoke within Stoke-on-Trent is listed on the At Risk Register by Historic England a link to which can be found here. historicengland.org.uk/advice/heritage-at-risk/search-reg...

Stoke the old and the new. by stokeyouth1

Stoke the old and the new.

Temptation, a pint of Slumbering Monk from Joule's Ales always calls to me as I pass this old pub.
Sitting on the corner of Glebe Street and Aqueduct Street, just on the outskirts of Stoke town centre in Staffordshire, the Glebe Hotel is a welcome sight as you enter the town. Behind it sits the Stoke-on-Trent Civic Centre and to the right can be seen the new construction site of the Capital and Centric Goods Yard development, beside Stoke railway station and the Trent and Mersey canal, on a site formerly called Swift House.
Dating back to the early nineteenth century and grade II listed, one of the main features of this pub may be attributed to William Morris and have recently been skillfully restored Paul Georgiou, a craftsman based in Erdington.

Digitised image from the Town Hall Photographer's Collection - GB127.M850

The Town Hall Photographer’s Collection is a large photographic collection held in Manchester City Council’s Central Library archives, ranging in date from 1956 to 2007.

The collection consists of tens of thousands of images, covering the varied areas of work of Manchester Corporation and latterly, Manchester City Council.

The photographs were taken by staff photographers, who were tasked to document the work of Corporation/Council departments and, in doing so, captured many aspects of Manchester life and history, including significant changes to the Manchester landscape.

The collection includes many different formats from glass negatives, to slides, prints, CDs and even a couple of cine films.

What is especially exciting is that the majority of these images have never before been available in a digital format and therefore have only ever been seen by a handful of people.

A team of dedicated Staff and Volunteers are currently working on the systematic digitisation of the negatives held within the collection.

This album represents the result of their work to date.

Glad to see no uPVC in sight!.

The bar of The Glebe Hotel, on the corner of Glebe Street and Aqueduct Street in Stoke, a grade II listed building originally built in 1834.
Much work has been carried out to renovate this pub, now a Joule's brewery house, including the restoration of the William Morris leaded glazing by Paul Georgiou, a craftsman based in Erdington.
Excuse the quality of the shot, I was cold and hungry (waiting for my lunch), and was swiftly disposing of a beautiful pint of Slumbering Monk!
The red cross that is seen in the glazing is the company trade mark which has been taken from the cross which was put onto each barrel as a blessing by the Augustinian Monks who first brewed these beers in Stone, Staffordshire, dating back to the twelfth century.

Better after a lick of paint.

The recently refurbished Glebe Hotel on Glebe Street, Stoke. A pub worth visiting to see its interior as well as the exterior (and possibly have a little drink to), the windows and tiled floor are beautiful. This is a grade II listed building.
