The ancient market town of Brewood is rich in history and retains a sense of unspoilt, timeless charm. Among its most notable buildings is Speedwell Castle, which was built in the 18th century using betting winnings on the Duke of Bolton's horse, Speedwell.
Also of architectural interest is the sandstone parish church of St Mary and St Chad, which boasts a 168-foot (51 m) spire. The sight dominates the town's skyline.
