More about this scene

The Guildhall is the town's oldest public building, dating from about 1714, but it was heavily restored during the mid 19th century. By the beginning of the 17th century those Englishmen who could afford it had taken up the craze for smoking tobacco in pipes made of clay. Newcastle's pipemakers gained a reputation for turning out quality pipes, for the clays between Shelton and Hanley Green were particularly suitable.
