BURSLEM Stoke on Trent THIS IS BAD! Ghost Town ENGLAND United Kingdom UK 4K 

theres some gorgeous buildings in burslem / stoke on trent in general . Its a shame so many have gone to rack and ruin

I always tell people I'm from New castle under Lyme although now live in Tunstall the city is an embarrassment.

Such a pitiful state our city is descending into ,Burslem used to be thriving and alive i went to college in Burslem nearly 60 years ago ,what a fantastic place to be

The shop at 5mins 20 sec was mine for 6 months 12 yrs ago . I also lived above it in the flat . The local alcoholics used to buy their cheap booze froom the newsagents next door and spend all day drunk and shouting abuse . When i complained to the police .They just said " it wouldnt be right to move them on to somewhere else " .... I didnt stay too long .

Poverty is not good for business. I can’t understand the Party of Business,the Tory’s,letting it happen.

So sad, once upon a time some fine looking buildings, now ready for the wrecking ball.

Blame Brighter Futures

There is no vitality in this city, there are no commercial activities, and many shops in the city have closed down, making it look like a dead city.

It was bound to happen when all those HUGE shopping centers opened everywhere.

Just two words FLATTEN it and build new homes on the land

It's like the apocalypse 🙄

@ 2:45 I could have sworn someone dropped an open can of beer there .. 🤔

That's a grim place.

It would break my heart to be the local"m.p. for these places, this lovely country is turning into s%^$T!😭😡

Jesus Christ.

Still better than Aberdeen.
