Cannock Chase

Once the hunting ground of ancient royalty, Cannock Chase is today a picturesque area of woodland walks, wildlife and superb scenery. Some 3 million people live within 20 miles of the Chase.

 

At only 26 square miles the Chase is the smallest area to be designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) in mainland Britain. Much of Cannock Chase is owned by Staffordshire County Council and Forestry Commission, which manage part of it as a commercial forest.
