[@johnfellows2867]

I joined the old Hanley library when I was about 5 or 6 years old, I'm 70 now and still a bookworm !

[@adeferranti4610]

I took the photo of the fish and chip van whilst sat in my ice cream van having a break,its the top of Bentilee,Ubberley Rd if l remember correct,I've still got the photo somewhere

[@ultimatesoccershow]

I lived in Hanley as a kid, these images bring it back to me as if I recogniize the brick work of the day! Great video, Cheers 🤙

Was expecting to see a pic of Shelley's Laserdome, that was my best memory from the place.

[@briandoyle667]

Am sure that chip van used to be in a layby on Trentham road opposite Newstead industrial estate back in the 70s

[@ThorntonValiant]

The past....it's still like this now. Up the Vale.

[@valiantv2897]

😂😂😂 beautiful though, to those of us who were born there but live elsewhere, VALETILIDIE

[@daveontoast]

I'm sure that chippy van was the one that used to come on Thursdays outside Newstead shops back in the 80s.

[@JohnJohnson-tw8qk]

C and A my favourite shops to go in Hanley sadly missed

[@shinobee3126]

Oldest thing I can remember is Kwicksave and Woolworths in Burslem and Netto in tunstall 🤣 ahh the early 2000s

[@stokiestewpotter7956]

Thinkin on,I'm sure that was the van that used to come around Trent vale in the late 60s,lunch times .

[@philipbradshaw4050]

Spent a lot of time on my motorcycle looking for the chip van!!

[@TheLifestyleVloggeruk]

[@adeclewes2721]

[@TheLifestyleVloggeruk]

Totally agree

[@croft9046]

I would agree too......was brilliant in the 60s.... 70s.....

[@SquidgyPickle]

It's a shithole. The past always seems better than the present. Once a shit hole, always a shit hole

[@kevinwilson598]

Oh yes, happy days fishing up hanley park in the seventies in the six week summer holiday

[@Bulletguy07]

Me and my mates used to as lads but gave up going after never catching much more than a cold there.....I don't think there ever was any fish in that lake! 🤣

[@paulclarkson4310]

Is that Mr Vitale's chip van from Bucknall that used to get on the Place Night club car park on a Saturday night ? If not it's pretty similar. Well I mean it's similar perhaps not pretty !

[@adeferranti4610]

He lived just before the Trent Tavern on the same side

[@joymaxfield7589]

Thank you .

[@christopherjones8469]

Do you know who the people are in the first image? Or is it just a stock photo?

[@TheLifestyleVloggeruk]

Not sure

[@Wildernessoutside]

used to fish up Langton park as a kid

[@stokiestewpotter7956]

Can we have some more please.?

[@davidsierowski8021]

like the video, i think there needs to be a dedicated website for this

[@MrOmar2025]

Let me guess C&A is B&M?

[@TheLifestyleVloggeruk]

Nope

[@suebloor4619]

The roads are now terrible traffic jams everywhere loads of dust heads and full of Ethnics Im not racist just stating the obvious

[@poxeh]

That’s not Ade Clewes from the rookery is it

[@user-kf7wl1pq9n]

Wym full of ethnics you bellend sayin it like its some issue, lol your defo a dust bag

[@stokiestewpotter7956]

With all its problems,still some smashing people about. Every city has its downs. It's been run by people that make very bad decisions about our city.

[@Braveheart7914-idfl]

Totally agree with rob 100% stop using the racist card every time the truth is told I’m born and bred Stoke and damn proud of were I’m from . Feel like a minority in my own town it’s attitude that’s prevalent no respect for our laws values or country , you would think when it’s so bad in there country of origin they would appreciate how tolerable we in the Uk are housing , benefits , national health so STOP! Using racism as an excuse it’s not colour its a fact . We have to abide to other country’s rules when visiting or living there so are we wrong to expect the same .
