    Willow Grange (100 new homes on Marston Lane just off Beaconside)

    Was not aware of yet another housing development nor that Marston Gate farm had been flattened for it: https://www.millerhomes.co.uk/new-homes/north-west/willow-grange-stafford.aspx https://www.staffordshire-live.co.uk/news/property/first-one-hundred-new-homes-2304949 I guess it means there...

    Stafford Traffic.

    As others have said the farce at Beaconside is best avoided - causing tailbacks down A34 southbound heading into Stafford, leaving M6 at J14 Stafford (both directions but especially southbound), A34 sliproad (east to Redhill island) and of course Beaconside in both directions of course - oh and...

    RIP St. Leonard's - English Electric/GEC Measurements/M.R.I/Alstom.

    Yeah it took me by surprise when I happened to drive past and saw they had started. I didn't quite top your achievment - started in 88 when I finished college and handed notice in 6mths later when the twat I worked for in the Sub Contract Dept refused to let me go on holiday for a week! I...

    RIP St. Leonard's - English Electric/GEC Measurements/M.R.I/Alstom.

    "St Leonard’s Works in Stafford was originally built in the 1960’s during English Electric’s ownership. The site became part of GEC (The General Electric Company) during 1968 and over the years was often known as either Measurements or the M.R.I. (Meters, Relays and Instruments). On 22 March...

    Stafford Traffic.

    Taylor Wimpey say "...this will include widening a 700m section of the road outside our development from two lanes to four, and will improve journey times along the A513. However, when we have the 3 new sets of traffic lights installed I don't think it'll be good. They say there are no plans by...

    Stafford Traffic.

    Ridiculous delays caused by Severn Trent roadworks at Great Bridgeford this morning. What is normally a 1-2 min journey from J14 to Great Bridgeford took 25rmins as the 3 way phased traffic lights were not set up right. When I got to the railway bridge after 25mins there was just one car...

    Stafford Traffic.

    I live in Parkside and travel towards Great Bridgeford every weekday at about 8. It is now not a rare sight to pass traffic backed up all the way down Beaconside, around the A34 island (and quite far up the A34 coming towards Stafford), plus virtually the full length of the A34 slip road towards...

    Remote Control Repair Required

    Hi, anyone know of any Staffs based person/company that can diagnose and fix a remote control for an amp please? Think it's most likely a blown capacitor. I've seen a couple of national places/people who advertise online but they seem to be mainly for basic repair like stripping down/cleaning...

    Cuffy/Skill - Stafford customer service thread - Stafford retailers reports.

    Big recommendation for The Greyhound at Yarlet, we went tonight and had Steak and Ale Pie plus a Beef Bourguignon. Both were some of the nicest meals we've ever had and it's rare for me to say that! Price not bad either. Menu was pretty varied too. PS. If this doesn't belong in here then...

    Cuffy/Skill - Stafford customer service thread - Stafford retailers reports.

    Recommendation for Jewson Hire dept from me. Very impressed on all counts especially helpfulness, friendliness and price. The opposite of what I got when I went to Traction Hire in fact.

    Wanted Rotovator

    Looking to hire a rotovator, only need it for half a day if that but the normal places * are looking nearer to £100 including delivery and collection (these things are too big and heavy to ft in a car). Anyone have any ideas where I may perhaps get one cheaper please? Thanks. * I've tried...
