These grassed over hummocks in the field are all that remains of the old farmstead of Low Stanley. This is shown on the First Series O S map of 1861, before the town of Stanley existed. It is shown as a long linear range, which probably means it was 18th century in origin, if not earlier. It was still there on the 1921 map.
