index of locations in Bennett's novels | "the mean, black,
smoke-palled streets that huddle about St. Luke's Church"
In Bennett's writings:
Actual location / building: St. John the Baptist Church [St. Luke's Church] is at the bottom of Bournes Bank [Woodisun Bank] Alongside the church was the Church Yard Pottery - this small pottery site was occupied and worked by the Wedgwood family from 1656, when Josiah Wedgwood I’s great-grandfather first took possession of it. Josiah served his apprenticeship there. The site derives its name from the nearby Church of St John’s, where Wedgwood himself was baptised on 12th July 1730
