The Cannock Shopping Centre is where you will find the majority of shops, as well as a pharmacy and several banks. Outside, there are more shops including supermarkets, a library and a host of pubs, cafes and chain restaurants.
There is also plenty of history connected to the area; Cannock was listed in the Domesday Book of 1086 as ‘Chenet’, and was a small community until the increase of mining in the mid-to-late 19th century. Today, the thriving town is where you will find a good variety of high street and independent shops, services, attractions and places to eat and drink for all tastes and budgets.
When it comes to outdoor space, as well as the Mill Green and Hawks Green Nature Reserve, the other huge benefit of choosing Norton Hall Meadow as your new home is the close proximity to the Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
