A lucky 7 of 7 waymarks with a tally of 14 located near the Trent and Mersey Canal at Middleport, Burslem.
This lucky 7 is centred at the The Anderton Company buildings dated 1890. The date is displayed to the rear of the property overlooking the canal. The coordinates given are taken from the Trent and Mersey canal towpath.
"The main building was in a very poor condition until recent years, when it was renovated and restored under the Middleport Waterfront Townscape Heritage Initiative (THI), a scheme delivered by the City Council and funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and Advantage West Midlands. The THI has made a great difference to a number of the buildings along Middleport Waterfront, ensuring that Middleport’s canalside heritage will be able to play a part in its future, once it is realised just what the city has on its hands here." visit link
