Once you’ve checked out the Forge Mill Needle Museum and visited the famous John Bonham memorial statue, there’s a variety of parks and attractions to discover a short drive away. A stroll around Arrow Valley Country Park is well-worth the 5min it takes to get there, and the magnificent Coughton Court is only 15min away. You can even experience the hustle and bustle of Birmingham in under 40min or take the 1h 20min trip over to Oxford for a dose of British history and charm.
