Why Annfield Plain is different from the rest of Stanley

Annfield Plain is a suburban pocket inside Stanley, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Stanley job. We plan around longer single-vehicle drives that often need widening or re-shaping. That's why this page exists separately to ourStanley page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
