Welcome to Longport

Longport is a small town located in Staffordshire, England. It is situated on the banks of the Trent and Mersey Canal, which was once a major transportation route for goods and people. The town has a rich industrial history, with pottery and coal mining being the main industries in the area. Today, Longport is a quiet residential area with a few local shops and amenities.

One of the main attractions in Longport is the Middleport Pottery, which was established in 1888. The pottery is famous for its handcrafted Burleighware, which is still made using traditional techniques. Visitors can take a tour of the pottery and see the skilled craftsmen at work. The site also includes a museum, café, and gift shop.

Longport is also home to the Longport Railway Station, which was built in 1848. The station is a Grade II listed building and is one of the oldest surviving railway stations in the country. It is still in use today and provides a direct link to Stoke-on-Trent and Crewe. The station is a popular spot for railway enthusiasts and history buffs alike.
