Map Features: Annotation 1: Stanley & Stanley common Comment text: I feel the current proposals to merge Stanley Village with Little Eaton would damage the local community. Little Eaton has nothing in common with Stanley. With reference to the new ward guidance notes on the lgbce website - Transport links: - There are no public transport links between Stanley Village and Little Eaton. Residents of Little Eaton would have no need to travel anywhere near Stanley to reach areas such as Derby, Nottingham, Ripley, Belper, M1 or A38. Exactly the same can be said for residents of Stanley. For the same destinations we would not travel through Little Eaton.

Interests: - No common interests at all with Little Eaton. Stanley Village and Stanley common however historical interests dating back centuries. I would like to add the fact that Stanley and Little Eaton are in different towns. Little Eaton is Derby, Stanley is Ilkeston Stanley has a different telephone area code to Little Eaton.
