History
In 1957, Guy Barks formed Stoke on Trent Boat Club with like-minded enthusiasts. The first meeting place was the Copeland Arms in Stoke, subsequently moving into the old grain store on the now defunct Newcastle Arm. In 2007, the Club celebrated its Golden Jubilee with a boat rally and open weekend, attended by local and waterways dignitaries, and opened by Joan Walley MP. Children from the local primary school visited the Club and took part in a series of competitions, raising the profile of the Club in the village. The clubhouse is open on Wednesday and Saturday evenings and Sunday lunch-times, and visiting boaters are welcome. Accredited AWCC members are welcome to use visitor moorings, subject to availability.
