First depicted on the 1985 OS map, the business park, which contains a variety of businesses, is constructed on the former site of North Staveley Colliery. The shaft was sunk in 1864 and the pit appears to have continued working into the late 1930s. Later the pit appears to have been absorbed into the Brookhouse colliery complex and used for spoil heaps. Terraced housing for the workers and leisure facilities were also built on site. Prior to this the area was agricultural comprising fields with straight boundaries. The fields were created through the enclosure of Aston Common by the Aston Cum Aughton parliamentary enclosure award of 1768. Legibility of this is invisible.
