Stafford

Stafford is a borough in Staffordshire that spans across a large area and encompasses both urban centers and rural landscapes. The district combines different settlement types and offers a mix of historic town cores and modern residential areas.

The current borough was formed in 1974 through the merger of several former administrative areas that belonged to different periods. This consolidation created the modern administrative structure that exists today.

The Gatehouse Theatre stands as the main center for performing arts in the area, hosting regular theatrical productions and musical performances that draw both locals and visitors throughout the year.

The borough is governed by a council and administrative office that coordinates local services such as waste collection and planning permissions. Visitors can find information about public services and local offerings through the official website.

The borough retains traces of medieval town planning that are still visible in today's street layout. This old foundational structure makes the historical development apparent when walking through the town center.
