View up Engels Terrace, South Stanley
Terraced bungalows built up the steep slope of the hillside below Stanley town Centre. The houses were built by Stanley Town Council sometime between the 1930-40's I think. As the name indicates, it was a staunchly Labour authority.

Looking west along Humber Hill road
This road in East Stanley joins Durham Road further on. The position here, on the side of the hill on which Stanley is built, gives good views of the surrounding countryside. The village of Quaking Houses can be made out in the distance.

Looking down the length of Durham Road, South Stanley
The suburb of South Stanley occupies the hillside below the town centre. The first council houses were built here in the 1930's I believe, and further estates were built in the 40's and early 50's. More were added in the later 20th century.
