Stanley went straight up the other end and Josh Woods passed to Nolan on the edge of the area and he curled a shot home for his 11th goal of the season.
Nolan came close with another couple of long-range efforts while, at the other end, Manchester United loan keeper Radek Vitek pulled off a double save to keep out unmarked Kofi Balmer's header and then denied Lee Brown's follow-up with his feet.
Ben Woods made the win safe when a Nolan corner was cleared to him and he rifled the ball into the bottom of the net.
