Port Vale (1950s)

Old Recreation Ground, home of Port Vale until 1950
Region: Hanley

The Old Recreation Ground was Port Vale's home from 1913 to 1950, before which the club had flitted between several homes in their early years of existence. The ground was located in Hanley and stood on what is now the multi-storey car park for the Potteries Shopping Centre.

I will be glad to go. It’s not a nice place to live... There’s no community left here any more.

I want to see the residents of this area having a voice and RENEW to take account of their views.
