Etruria Road, Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent

Etruria Road runs from Trinity Street in Hanley down to the Festival Park and then to the A500 dual-carriageway. It is the main road from Cobridge to Newcastle-under-Lyme. On the 1898 OS map the section of the road from the bottom of Cobridge Road to Etruria railway station was named 'Lord Street'. In the early 1950's this section was renamed Etruria Road.
