From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The town, historically known as Rudgeley or Ridgeley, is listed in the Domesday Book. This name is thought to be derived from ‘Ridge lee’, or ‘the hill over the field’. In the mediaeval period, it thrived on iron workings and was also a site of glass manufacturing. During the Industrial Revolution the economy of Rugeley benefited from the construction of the Trent and Mersey Canal and then from it becoming a junction on the railway network.
