About Cannock Wood

Cannock Wood, a quiet hamlet, breathes the wilder air of its surroundings. It lies 3.8 km north-north-west of Burntwood (from Burntwood: bearing 334°T, OS grid SK 046 123), and is situated north-west of Gentleshaw village. The land here rolls with a gentle, almost ancient, incline, hinting at the deeper woodlands that give Cannock Wood its name. Though no grand monuments mark its presence, the very character of the place speaks of a long, unassuming habitation, where life has followed the patient seasons. A subtle scent of damp earth and distant pine often drifts on the breeze, a reminder of its proximity to the expansive Cannock Chase. The houses of Cannock Wood, often modest and well-kept, seem to hunker down against the sky, their roofs catching the pale English light.
