Leek is an historic market town located in the county of Staffordshire. It lies about 16 km north east of Stoke-on-Trent. It is an ancient borough and was granted its royal charter in 1214.
In the 1830s Leek was described as one of the handsomest market towns in Staffordshire and had a regular cattle market for hundreds of years, reflecting its role as a centre of local farming.
Following the Industrial Revolution it was a major producer of textiles, with silk working coming to dominate the industrial landscape. However, this industry has now ceased.
