The Museum of Cannock Chase occupies the old site of the Valley Colliery. Set in 30 acres on the edge of Cannock Chase it documents the story of the local industrial heritage, social history, famous people and domestic life. Hednesfield Hill Nature Reserve heathland is right next door and ideal for long walks across the Chase.
Entrance to the museum is free and there is a Visitor Information Point, a gift shop and a cafe. The building which houses the museum used to be the corn store where pit ponies were once kept. The museum provides a fascinating insight into local history, culture and tradition.
