Stoke-On-Trent-The famous pottery firm of "Josiah Wedgwood }, and Sons Lot, which has been festantished at · Kruria. Štokhon- Prent, since 1769, has decided to move to a new site.
In an official statement issued by the firm recently it was stated that the position of the new fac- tory had not yet been decided japon, but that a site known as Barlaston Hall, between Stoke-on- Trent and Stone and about four miles from the Potteries, was being seriously considered.
Mr. Josiah Wedgwood, jun. managing director, made this az Inouncement to about 1,000 em-
ployees.
The new factory will be equip-| (ped on, the most modern lines, and the firing will be done entirely without smoke. It is proposed to |establish a garden village, of which the factory will be the cen- tre, surrounded by 500 houses,
playing fields and other amenities.
