The Huntington Belt is a remarkable geological feature in the United Kingdom, characterized by a narrow zone of intense folding and faulting that stretches for over 100 km. This unique belt of deformed rocks dates back to the Caledonian orogeny, a period of mountain-building that occurred around 450-250 million years ago. The belt's complex structure is a result of the collision of tectonic plates, which caused the Earth's crust to buckle and fold, creating a series of tight folds and faults. Today, the Huntington Belt is a popular destination for geologists and outdoor enthusiasts, offering stunning scenery, picturesque villages, and opportunities for hiking, rock climbing, and exploring the region's rich geological heritage.
Nice mature pine forest, this very narrow band of woodland affords a foot route from Cavans wood near Cannock to Cank thorn near the German cemetery. It also makes a great walk in its own right.
So peaceful and quiet
