Dist:0.1km<br/>Just because a track is marked on the OS maps doesn't mean you can rely on it being passable. This is the white (other road, drive or track) from SJ845526 to SJ849530. Only the top part from Goldenhill to the farm is open.

Dist:0.1km<br/>The pond, between Latebrook House Farm and the council caravan park, is quite difficult to spot. Unfortunately quite a lot of rubbish has been tipped into it and it is now surrounded by banked earthworks in an attempt to stop any more tipping.

Dist:0.8km<br/>Blue Planet Chatterley Valley will be a truly “Carbon Positive” development – the complex will have its own bio-fuel micro power station, using rapeseed oil, which will produce sufficient power and heat for the on-site buildings and a surplus that will provide enough energy to power up to 650 local homes.

Dist:0.8km<br/>R.J. Mitchell, the designer of the famous Spitfire WWII fighter plane, was born about 2 miles from here in Butt Lane. The A527 from Sandyford to the A500 is named "Reginald Mitchell Way" to commemorate one of the few famous men from Stoke-on-Trent who was not involved with the pottery industry.
