Bagnall, Endon, Stanley and Stockton Brook are situated to the
north-east of the Potteries conurbation in North Staffordshire and
form a rough triangle pointing towards Leek. The busy A53 passes
through Stockton Brook and Endon carrying traffic between
Stoke-on-Trent and Leek, and also conveying many of the residents
of the area to work. Despite being relatively affluent dormitory
settlements, Stockton Brook and Endon do still manage to retain
much of their village feel. Stanley, Bagnall and the original Endon
village are on quieter backwaters and are therefore more rural
still. There is virtually no industry apart from livestock farming
in the area and such industry that was developed in the nineteenth
century has now disappeared. This area's main interest lies in its
ancient churches and farm buildings, its eighteenth-century canal
and nineteenth-century railway and reservoir, not forgetting its
popular and well-attended Well Dressing event, held every year
since 1845. Bagnall, Endon, Stanley and Stockton Brook Through Time
guides you on a nostalgic tour of these four North Staffordshire
villages.
