The Bowling Green
There was a Bowling Green in the centre of Cannock before 1753 when a wall was built around it. It is still in regular use.
The building in the background is now part of Cannock Chase Technical College but was once the Council Building

Cannock Conduit
The building of the Conduit Head or House started in 1736. By supplying the inhabitants of Cannock with free drinking water (it was reputed to be second only to Malvern Water in quality) it kept down illness and death. The area had one of the lowest mortality rates in England at the time. Later to become a registered Charity, The Conduit Trust has served the Township of Cannock for over 200 years.
One of the original pumps can be seen to the right of the Head.

Cannock United Reformed Church
The church, which dates form 1865, was finally closed in November 2009.
The congregation had moved away from the church’s town centre site. Lack of car parking and modern facilities also contributed.
