STONE
The traditional and bustling Market town of Stone is situated off the A34 in Staffordshire, just 8 miles from the county town of Stafford. Stone is steeped in a long and colourful history as a canal town, situated midway along the Trent and Mersey Canal. On the first Saturday of every month, the popular farmers market visits the town, attracting many visitors looking for speciality produce. There is a Craft and Collectables Market on every Third Saturday and other themed markets appear during the year. The town Markets are also a regular feature in the High Street - visiting Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Stone is known as The Food and Drink Capital for a good reason, as the diverse choice of cuisine is excellent - offering a wide range of choice, from traditional home cooked food through to Indian, Thai, Chinese, Italian and fine specialist dishes. Adding to the vibrancy of Stone - various events take place throughout the year, including the Stone Festival held annually in June and the highly successful Food and Drink Festival which takes place in October.
BREWOOD
Brewood dates back to Anglo-Saxon times and became a notable market town following the Norman Conquest. The town's national significance declined during the 19th century, having been greatly affected by the Agricultural and Industrial Revolutions. On the positive side, today's village has changed relatively little since then, although the population has expanded. Brewood retains its original character and has been designated a Conservation Area. There are many listed buildings: half-timbered old houses and cottages in the traditional black-and-white style, lie alongside dignified houses of the Georgian and Queen Anne period. It is difficult to isolate any for special mention, but Dean Street is particularly appealing, providing a very attractive setting for the Parish Church of St Mary, the Virgin, and St. Chad. Brewood is much loved by canal folk and pleasure cruisers. The Shropshire Union Canal (also designated as a Conservation Area) runs through the village, which offers a unique route to the walled city of Chester. The village provides a pleasing selection of shops and public houses, as well as restaurants and tea rooms. There are many local attractions, and events all year round.
