The villages of Stanley and Stanley Common lie in the borough of Erewash in Derbyshire, England. They occupy a semi‑rural spot on the Erewash Valley corridor between Derby and Nottingham, surrounded by arable fields, lanes and footpaths that link the settlements to nearby green spaces.
Historically the area grew from agriculture and later coal‑related employment, and traces of that industrial past sit alongside modern housing as the villages have become popular with commuters. Local life centres on small community facilities, church and village‑hall activities, and easy access to riverside and canal walking routes such as the Erewash Canal, giving the parish a quietly mixed historic and residential character.
