Postcards of Stoke - Campbell Place (1905)

 

Campbell Place, Stoke (postmarked 1905)

This picture is taken from London Road.

The Campbell Monument (Statue of Colin Minton Campbell) can be seen 
in the background and so can the full facade of the Wheatsheaf Hotel. 
In the right hand foreground can be seen the wall below which the Newcastle canal passed 
under Campbell Place on it's way to the nearby Trent and Mersey canal.
The canal tunnel was drained shortly before the 1939 war and was used as an Air Raid Shelter.
