Oldfurnace

England

Oldfurnace lies in Staffordshire's former mining heartland, reached via the A52 through Oakamoor or smaller roads from neighbouring Threapwood and Newton. Most journeys are local trips under 20km, though some visitors come exploring the area's industrial heritage. Electric vehicle drivers have access to roughly 50 public fast chargers nearby. The settlement sits near the old Chatterley Whitfield colliery, whose Victorian pithead baths remain as striking reminders of the coal mining era.
