Moors Gorse Car Park Marquis Dr, Rugeley WS15 2UZ
Free parking for Cannock Chase trails at Moors Gorse
Moors Gorse Car Park is a free surface lot operated by Cannock Chase AONB, situated on Marquis Drive at the southern approach to Cannock Chase. The gravel and tarmac facility provides around 40 marked bays, including two Blue Badge spaces near the gate. It is open from dawn until dusk; no overnight parking. A featured information board at the entrance details walking and cycling trails on Cannock Chase, local wildlife sightings (e.g., red deer, nightjars), and forestry regulations. Benches are placed at the lot perimeter overlooking adjacent heathland. No lighting or CCTV is available, so daytime use is advised. Pedestrian trails lead directly to the Forest Road cycle hub (0.1 km) and Moors Valley viewpoint (0.3 km). Seasonal guided wildlife walks depart from this car park every weekend between April and September. Maintenance crews clear fallen branches monthly and inspect drainage channels quarterly.
