Description:This postcard view was taken quite early on in the development of Rugeley Camp as parts of it are still being built and the roadway is requiring its finishing coating. Initially the materials were brought up by road from Trent Valley Station in Rugeley and the heavy traffic badly damaged the roads. It was not until the military railway from Hednesford had been laid could this problem be alleviated.
