Basford is a bordering suburb of both Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire, England. It is split between Newcastle and Stoke along the A53 – Etruria Road. It lies on high ground between the town centre of Newcastle-under-Lyme to its south-west, and Stoke's Etruria suburb (home to Festival Park commercial and retail development) to its east. Basford is also bordered to the north by May Bank, to its south by Hartshill, and to the west by The Brampton. The suburb's busiest roads are Etruria Road, which features most of the area's businesses and the only local post office, Basford Park Road which leads to May Bank High Street and Wolstanton, and Shelton New Road which forms the southern boundary with Hartshill. ==History==
Basford's lofty position meant it was being referred to as "Basford Hill" or "Basford Bank" by the 1830s,〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=British History Online )〕 but previously (circa 1771) it had been called "Fowlea Bank".〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=British History Online )〕 The Fowlea Brook runs through nearby Etruria and has formed the valley. During the 1830s, the area featured typical ceramics industries; brick and tile yards.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=British History Online )〕
