City Road, Fenton
The Baker family of potters occupied
the factories along the present City road since at least the beginning of
the 19thC.
They were
probably responsible for this row of early cottages adjoining it on the lower
side.
The triangular development centred around Victoria Place was a later housing development of the Bakers.
