About the area
Rugeley is an historic market town which lies on the northern edge of Cannock Chase and is situated roughly midway between the towns of Stafford, Cannock, Lichfield and Uttoxeter.
Rugeley has two railway stations, Rugeley Town and Rugeley Trent Valley, which lie on the Chase Line connecting Stafford, Walsall, and Birmingham. Rugeley Trent Valley also lies on the West Coast Main Line and has a regular hourly service to London via Lichfield, Nuneaton, Rugby and Milton Keynes, and to Crewe via Stafford and Stoke-on-Trent.
The major roads into Rugeley are the A460 from Cannock, and the A51 Lichfield to Stone. A new eastern bypass was opened in 2007 to take the A51 through traffic out of the congested town centre.
The River Trent and the Trent and Mersey Canal both pass through the town. Rugeley has a leisure centre on Burnthill lane, next to Hagley Park Sports College, which has sports facilities and recently a new 25m, 6 lane swimming pool. Rugeley has also benefited from a skate park being built opposite Elmore Park.
Rugeley has a reasonably sized town centre which has an outdoor market 3 days per week on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. It also has an indoor market and a shopping centre.
The town is also near to Cannock Chase and there is now a heritage trail funded by the National Lottery linking the town to Hednesford and Cannock. The trail is now complete and contains many notice boards highlighting the town's history.
