RSPB Consall Woods Nature Reserve

A very spacious car park with a visitor centre and immediate access to many trails. Bring a backpack and lunch and spend the day here. There are many woods to explore that can be accessed directly from the nearby Caldon Canal and a couple of incredible places within walking distance to refresh yourselves, namely: Black Lion & Hetty's.

Toilets are supposedly open every day until 4. This was not the case today typically so the Black Lion pub obligingly had public facilities though.
The car park is adequate but the lane leading to it has many holes in the road so be wary in rain or snow as you may go over one without caution having not seen them.
There is a useful A5 map dispenser which has some interesting places/facts highlighted on the one side of print that may give you some ideas for your walk.
The maps are free.
It was well stocked today.
