Description:This view was taken looking south from Martin Street to St. Chad’s Church in Stafford.
St. Chad's dates from the Norman period and is one of Stafford's oldest churches. The church was originally built in an open square, but since the seventeenth century it was surrounded by shops and housing and later by offices, shutting it away from Greengate Street. In the foreground offices are being built for Staffordshire County Council.
