The Consall Valley is said to be one of the most beautiful stretches of canal in the country. The canal, the river Churnet and the heritage railway come together in this wooded valley. There are no roads, just the canal towpath and the odd steam train run by Churnet Valley Railways. The perfect place to enjoy a walk or cycle.
Set in a picturesque hamlet deep in the Churnet Valley, Consall is the railway's "jewel in the crown". Sharing the valley floor with both the Caldon Canal and the River Churnet, this sleepy rural station is full of Victorian charm having been carefully restored to how it original was on its opening in 1902.
A listed parish church, the earliest surviving fabric exists within the tower and dates from the 13th and 14th centuries. The majority of the extant church building is of 19th century date (and includes work by Trubshaw and Lynham). An unusual wooden sundial is present below the church clock. A fragment of 12th century column in use as a trough in the adjacent farmyard may indicate that an earlier building once existed here.
