Etruria Industrial Museum, Stoke-on Trent, the last working steam-driven ceramic mill in Britain. A popular tourist attraction.


Etruria Industrial Museum canal festival, Stoke-on Trent. Every summer there is a canal festival at this historical site. Built in 1857, it is the last working steam-driven ceramic mill in Britain. Originally it milled the flint and bone to supply the thriving pottery industry in Stoke. There is a superb steam engine, "The Princess", which still works and is fired-up several times a year. The canal festival is a popular tourist attraction as Etruria is situated on the junction of the Trent-Mersey and Caldon canal network.
