    I recently discovered died having fallen from earth, which happened in Etruria Woods, Wolstanton, in June 1960 The family story is that he was looking around a First World War bomb crater. I haven't been able to find any evidence of bombing in Stoke-on-Trent during the First World War. Does anyone know anything about this area and what might have caused the "fall of earth" sufficient to kill someone?

    Would like some information on a bomb that dropped in Nile Street, Burslem in 1942 / 1943. My father recollects windows being blown out in Harris's garage as a child.

    I believe that this same bomb did some minor damage to the stained glass window in the Congregational Church, a few doors away from Harris's hardware shop in Moorland Rd., but I don't know any details. The one piece of coloured glass was replaced by a clear piece which is still there.
