Suburb in Stoke-on-Trent, England
Lightwood is a suburb of Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, England. It is located to the south of Longton, and Lightwood Road runs from here to Rough Close.
The area gives its name to the Lightwood Hoard, a substantial collection of Roman coins discovered buried in the garden of a house on Lightwood Road in 1960.[1]
Though containing mostly private housing, the area includes a Methodist chapel constructed in 1816 which is a Grade II listed building.[2] [3]
