No need to look at the notices along these plastic barriers along Eccleshall Road to detect that the work involves digging up the sewers.

Junction and tractor, Eccleshall Road
Croft Road meets the A5013 at this T-junction. The tractor driving through suburbia is a reminder of the importance of agriculture to this part of the county. It seems to be towing a Claas Quadrant baler.

St Bertelin's Church, Eccleshall Road
Built in the 1950s and dedicated in 1956 St Bertelin's is part of the Stafford Team Ministry [Church of England].
Bertelin is an unusual dedication. He was a holy man who is reputed to have built a chapel in Stafford sometime in the C7th or C8th century. The foundations of what is believed to have been this building or its successor can be seen in St Mary's churchyard in the town centre. He is believed to have died at Ilam in Derbyshire and to be buried there.

St Bertelin's Church, Stafford
This view of the unusually-dedicated church shown in
Image is from across Holmcroft Road. I attempted to arrange it so that the person sitting on the bench was hidden by a tree - but it's a very small tree.
