Moving to or from Staffordshire?
Let M&G Do the Heavy Lifting (Before the M6 Junction Sends You Round in Circles)
Welcome to Staffordshire — England’s heartland county, where pottery meets peaks and the M6 keeps Stoke and Birmingham firmly connected. With around 1.1 million residents who know the shortcut past Alton Towers better than any sat‑nav, Staffordshire blends industrial heritage with rural calm.
Schools That Actually Impress
Denstone College (the independent heavyweight), Newcastle‑under‑Lyme School, and Stafford Grammar all carry strong reputations. Translation: your kids will get a solid education, and you’ll have plenty of parents comparing exam results at the school gates.
Economy With a Balance
Staffordshire’s economy mixes ceramics, engineering, and logistics with growing service and tech hubs in Stoke‑on‑Trent and Stafford. Add in commuters heading to Birmingham and Manchester, and you’ve got a county that’s practical, connected, and quietly thriving.
Things to Do (Besides Timing the M6 Traffic)
Alton Towers – theme park thrills for families and adrenaline seekers.
Peak District (Staffordshire corner) – rolling hills and walking trails.
Local favourites – Stoke City FC for matchday buzz, Wedgwood pottery for heritage, and canal walks for fresh air and photo ops.
