Stoke-on-Trent

Hill Street

E, H 5 North Staffordshire
Hanley H

E and H Companies are listed at Hill street and Hanley, which suggests Hanley as a drill station in effect (notwithstanding the extant Hanley Drill Hall), So whilst the main unit was at Hill street, a platoon or whatever was based in Hanley.

According to Kelly 1912, H company was in Trentham. The Head quarters of 1st Volunteer Batallion North Staffs were in Market place, Stoke. This information is based on a pre-1908 reference from Kelly.
