Help with Cannock Chase please.

[*gold*]

Hi, we as a family wish to go to Cannock chase today, there must be something for the kids to do, even if its just walk around exploring.
I will be taking my camera in the hope of getting some Bird pictures, not fussed on species as i just need the practice.
what i need to know is the best place to park as the Chase covers such a massive area.
Any help and advice much appreciated,
Many thanks
Cliff

Cliff for birds you need to come in on the chase road and ask anybody were the frida's grave feeding site is,for the kids there is a park with swings and slides and such over the other side of the chase toward marquis drive ask at the visitors centre they will tell you were to go,hope this helps.

If you were going today, this reply is out of date.There isnt a charge at Marquis drive, but the main car park at the center does charge, there are plenty of other parking places in the immediate area though. Also, there is a feeding station behind the visitors center where you can get a few of the regular birds, there is a wicker type fence to hide behind and a covered seating area for the wife to keep the cups of tea coming

Hope you had a good day
