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.

Looking down the track from Low Stanley
This was once the farm track to Low Stanley Farm, which is now gone. The view is south towards the housing estate at South Stanley. There is a nice view from here on the lower slopes below the town, which is also presumably the origin of the name.
