I tried it.  Just typed old maps online.  Did a search Bucknall Staffordshire.  Great map 1949 - 1953 shows Botteslow Farm. Travel east on the map and it shows Ash Hall.  My grandparents moved to a house just above there in the 1960's. after living in Bottleslow Street.  :) https://maps.nls.uk/view/91576760  Don't know if this link will work, never tried before, so hope I'm not doing something I shouldn't re. copyright. Guess someone will tell me!  Welly

www.oldmapsonline.org is the site which is free and there is no breach of copywrite.
When the page opens, a map of a wider area of Stoke-on-Trent appears which you can manipulate to move to the area which includes Fenton & Eaton Park. Then, on the right hand side of the screen, a number of Ordnance Survey maps appear made over different years. I chose the 1898 one which is the nearest to your 1901 Census date, but you can look at all of them without logging out. Best of luck.
