History
Stanley was created by the ''Electoral Districts Act'' of 1872 as a single-member seat (taking effect from 1873). From 1878 it became a two-member constituency through incorporation of part of the
Electoral district of West Moreton
from which it had been derived in 1872. Stanley was abolished in the 1949 redistribution which placed most of it in the new
Electoral district of Somerset.
