Why Catchgate is different from the rest of Stanley

Catchgate is a suburban pocket inside Stanley, and the practical realities on site aren't the same as a generic Stanley job. We plan around 1960s-90s family homes, wider drives and mature front gardens. That's why this page exists separately to ourStanley page— the work, access and finishes are typically different even when the postcode is shared.
