Staffordshire

The area around Stafford.

Stafford is Staffordshire's county town, with a compact centre of timber-framed buildings, a Norman castle on the hill and good rail links north and south. Its economy mixes public-sector jobs, engineering and a university campus, and it serves a wide rural area of villages. Housing ranges from older terraces to newer estates on the north and east sides. Local customers generally want a firm that is nearby and dependable, so naming Stafford districts and villages like Stone and Penkridge helps catch the rural enquiries too.

Closest to Stafford within the Stafford council area: Stone (7 miles) and Eccleshall (7 miles). Elsewhere in Staffordshire: Penkridge (6 miles), Rugeley (8 miles), Hednesford (8 miles) and Cannock (9 miles). It is worth saying plainly which of these you travel to, so people further out know whether to call.
