Memorial to the fallen

Plans for the first of two new war memorials honouring the fallen in a Stoke-on-Trent town have been unveiled. 

The Kilngate Memorial to the Royal Doulton Fallen - set to be installed in Burslem - recognises the lives of 59 Royal Doulton workers who died in the First and Second World Wars.

It is intended the memorial will be installed in central Burslem, looking towards Nile Street, the route many of the workers would have taken as they left for service.
