Brereton is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Brereton and Ravenhill, in the Cannock Chase district, in the county of Staffordshire, England. The village was previously a mining community, with several mines in the Brereton area. The Leahall Mine was the largest and last to close of the local mines, all of which have now ceased to operate. Recently part of the mine area has been redeveloped as the Towers Business Park, set around the Towers Point building. A 2,300-home housing development is now planned for the Leahall site. On the site a new secondary school, commercial facilities, riverside park and sporting facilities are to be included.
