Rugeley is a historic market town in the county of Staffordshire, which lies on the edge of Cannock Chase.

 

The town was a centre of coal mining until 1991, when the Lea Hall colliery was demolished. The Rugeley B coal-fired power station dominates the skyline where a Flue Gas Desulfurization plant is currently being constructed. This will allow it to continue to generate electricity and comply with environmental legislation. The former Rugeley A station took its fuel directly from the neighbouring mine by conveyor belt. This was the first such arrangement in Britain.

 

Rugeley is twinned with the town of Western Springs, Illinois.
