Welcome to Stone

Stone is a small town located in Staffordshire, England. It is situated on the banks of the River Trent and is known for its rich history and beautiful architecture. The town has a population of around 17,000 people and is a popular tourist destination due to its many attractions and amenities.

One of the most notable landmarks in Stone is the 12th-century St. Michael's Church. This stunning building is a prime example of Norman architecture and features a beautiful tower and spire. The church is also home to a number of interesting historical artifacts, including a 14th-century font and a 16th-century brass eagle lectern.

Another popular attraction in Stone is the Trent and Mersey Canal. This historic waterway was built in the late 18th century and played a vital role in the Industrial Revolution. Today, visitors can take a leisurely stroll along the canal towpath or even hire a narrowboat to explore the waterway at their own pace. The canal is also home to a number of interesting wildlife species, including kingfishers, otters, and water voles.
