Delving into Staffordshire's past takes us back to the 1850s when coal mining was at its peak.

The brave soldiers who served under The Staffordshire Regiment are forever etched in history books as defenders of freedom. Their unwavering dedication and sacrifice continue to inspire generations today. Church Cliff in Kinver offers breathtaking views over Stourbridge and beyond. This picturesque spot serves as a reminder that even within an industrialized county like Staffordshire, pockets of untouched natural beauty can still be found. In 1963, Lea Hall Colliery and Rugeley A Power Station stood tall against the horizon - symbols of progress and prosperity for Staffordshire.
