Grade II* listed buildings in Stoke-on-Trent

Stoke-on-Trent is a city located in Staffordshire, England. The city is a linear conurbation of six constituent towns (Burslem, Fenton, Longton, Tunstall, Stoke-upon-Trent and Hanley, with the latter being regarded as the city centre). Stoke-on-Trent is considered to be the home of the pottery industry in England and is commonly known as the Potteries. Formerly a primarily industrial conurbation, it is now a centre for service industries and distribution centres.
