The village has a small shopping center, which includes a supermarket, a post office, and a few other shops.

Stairfoot has a rich history, dating back to the 18th century when it was a small hamlet. The village grew rapidly during the 19th century, thanks to the coal mining industry. The village was home to several coal mines, which provided employment to the local population. However, the decline of the coal mining industry in the 20th century led to the closure of the mines, and the village's economy shifted towards other industries.

The village also has several parks and green spaces, which provide a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
