The Prince of Wales is due to visit a number of historic sites, including the Victorian Middleport pottery in Stoke-on-Trent, as he continues a two-day programme of engagements to champion regeneration projects.

The Prince will tour the Weavers' Triangle area of Burnley, Lancashire, before visiting the Victorian Middleport pottery in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire.

On Monday, Charles visited a steel plant, a retail unit and a young people's charity on Teeside.

During a previous visit to Burnley in 2008, Charles pledged the support of six of his charities to help take forward the revitalisation of the town. Another five of the Prince's charities are now working in Burnley.

On Tuesday, the Prince will meet volunteers, beneficiaries and representatives from charities and organisations during the visit to Sandygate Square, Slater's Terrace and Victoria Mill, in the historic Weavers' Triangle.

Some of the Prince's charities have been working together to set out plans that will lead to sustainable regeneration of the area of industrial heritage.

Charles will meet a number of people involved with his charities in this area before touring a derelict Victorian canal side building and watching a short performance in a large, disused cotton mill currently undergoing restoration.

The Prince will later visit Middleport pottery, which is the last working Victorian pottery in the UK.

Charles was directly involved in the rescue of the pottery from closure in June this year by securing £7.5 million funding to allow The Prince's Regeneration Trust to save Middleport.

As a result, 45 jobs have been saved and refurbishment and regeneration of the site, which English Heritage has deemed a national treasure, is due to begin in autumn 2012. The Prince will meet long-serving members of staff at the site before touring the factory to see the various stages of pottery production.
