Date:1905 - 1906 (c.)

Description:The building, since demolished, was situated on the Rugeley Road, Hednesford opposite the park. An access road to the Valley Pit ran along the right of the property where the Museum of Cannock Chase is today (2022). The woodland just discernible behind the tree on the right is where Elizabeth Gaskin was murdered in 1919. Prior to its demolition the building was used to sell automotive components.

The postcard was posted from Hednesford to Birmingham in December 1906.
