Stone is a canal-side market town and is a 10-minute walk or 5-minute cycle from Stone Station. It stands in the valley of the River Trent and was once an important coaching town. The town offers a vibrant choice of shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants centred on its pedestrianised High Street and hosts a popular farmers’ market on the 1st Saturday of the month, as well as an annual Food and Drink Festival.
NSCRP promotes the importance of local railways in improving mobility and sustainable travel, community cohesion and wellbeing, and social and economic development.
