Staffordshire Way - Brewood

I began the next section of the Staffordshire Way on Friday. Starting in Brewood,...


...where there are some nice shops. 


 This is Speedwell Castle - built from the proceeds of a bet. On a horse called Speedwell
There's a one bedroom apartment available to rent at £104 pwk


 There are other nice houses too


 Must be a bit dark in here. Windows painted on!

 The Catholic church, designed by Pugin


 Reaching the bridge, and the pub of the same name.
I left my map on this bridge by accident. It had disappeared when I went back to look. Shame on you Brewood! So this walk was done without a map.


 It started along the canal


 Some people were getting ready to hire this narrow boat for the weekend (or possibly week - they had a lot of luggage)


The canal is on an embankment, with views over the fields


A lovely Autumn Day


A traditional milepost
To be continued...
