Dunstall Hill Industrial Estate occupies the site of the former GWR Stafford Road Works. The works originally built locomotives until production was transferred to Swindon in 1908 but it remained an important railway workshop for heavy repairs and maintenance. The works eventually closed in the Beeching era.
