Midlands Cannock Chase

[Craikeybaby]

As a mountain biker I am often at Cannock Chase, but all I see are the MTB trails and immediate area. However this weekend I'll be passing through, without my bike, and will have an opportunity to do some photography.

Are there any good locations for landscape type photography?

In case anyone else is looking for somewhere to photograph in the Cannock Chase AONB, I ended up at Great Haywood, and took some photos of the canals/river:

Somewhere deep in the middle of Cannock Chase there is a full blown war cemetery. One difference from the norm.....this is a German War Cemetery. All Germans from both wars who died on our soil are in there. Some fascinating stories. It's a nice place. Maintained by our CWGC.
Well worth a visit.

I think I have seen signs for that while out on the bike.

Here's an infra red photo I took of it.

I doubt it, I’m more likely to be on pinkbike.
