Driveways in Duston
Driveway quotes for Duston, the old village turned western suburb: a mix of period properties near the village core and 1930s to modern family housing beyond, served by the full surface range.
Driveways for Duston's two halves
Duston was a village before Northampton absorbed it, and it still shows: older cottages and period houses near the historic core, with ring after ring of 1930s and later family housing around it. Near the old village, gravel and sett-look block paving keep the character. On the newer roads, brindle block paving and resin bound are the standard choices.
Family practicality
Duston drives work hard: two-car households, school-run traffic, bins and bikes. Block paving earns its popularity here by being repairable, and resin by hosing clean. On the heavier clay patches, sub-base depth deserves the same attention as anywhere in Northampton, and any written quote should itemise it.
Typical Duston prices
