Shopping
There are no village shops within walking distance, however there is a small village store at Harlaston, and there is a good range of shops in Alrewas or Measham and of course in Tamworth.
Getting to Birmingham
I recommend driving to Tamworth and getting the regular train to Birmingham. There is carpark at the station and also opposite the Police Station for train times please go to www.thetrainline.com
The Mailbox
The Mailbox shopping centre is pure indulgence where famed fashion and lifestyle design clash head on with contemporary art and fine furnishings. Lunch with friends or a relaxing coffee? Cosmopolitan canal side restaurants or café bars with stunning views await.
The Mailbox is currently being totally transformed - the new Mailbox will be bigger, better and easier to get around. You’ll enjoy a relaxed sky-lit haven of elegance and innovation. And with a new line-up of leading brands, the new Mailbox will be the place for anyone in search of luxury shopping, dining and pampering.
