Along the way we stumbled across various interesting symbols, statues, monuments, emblems and signs part of Fenton. Fenton’s own mottto: ‘Onwards and Upwards!’which perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the town represented in Fenton’s very own monument. The image on the left ‘The Fenton Crest’ is a shield which is divided up into four quarters, separated by a fretty cross.
The pottery industry is represented by the vase in the top left and the bottle kilns in the top right. The coal industry is represented by the pit head wheel in the bottom left. In the bottom right quarter a sheaf of corn in front of a plough.
