Best known Staffordshire street (?)

A photo of 'My Street' was what was requested as this month's theme on the City Daily Photo site. I'm a member of the the group, so it got me wondering: what is Staffordshire's best-known street?

Could it be Lichfield's Cathedral Close, or even 'Watling Street' (aka The Great North Road)? 

But it came upon me that, actually, for most people, the M6 Motorway, which bisects the county, is the part of Staffordshire that is most well-known.   And, if you narrow it down, the 'street' that leads one into the interior of the main service station on the M6 in Staffordshire - Stafford Services - might even be best known 'street' of all. Sadly.

You could call it the hub of the county.   In a sort of way...

This post is my contribution to the CDPB December theme My Street.

  3. Here in New York USA, we'd call this a 'rest area'. Yours might seem mundane to you but it's different to what I get to see, so there's that! A very interesting interpretation of the theme - thanks for sharing!
