Yes.
But only just.
The demarcation point is actually at the top of Yarlet Bank, just about where the Greyhound is.
The latitude that I was born at.
The place to which you refer is historically the point that, when these things were far more relevant, national newspapers used to have two main printed editions. This is pre world wide web of course. So the northern editions , usually printed in Manchester, but later some printed in Stoke, would not deliver south of Yarlet Bank. The southern editions printed in London, not north of it.
Obviously the line would have to continue both east and west of this position. Separately, this the point at which HS2 may one day slither between the the decayed north and the beautiful south.
Clayheads have been known to expect to see the edge of the world when being driven south on the A34, just as they pass the Greyhound and begin the decent into 'town' For many, Trentham Gardens, actually in Stafford, is quite far enough thank you.
To be fair, locally based Stoke City supporters have travelled great distances, however, this is because they have done it by entering the pressurised tardis vehicles known as 'Procters'
