So …… what’s stirring in Stockport?

Now, I know I could find out easily enough on just what is happening on Lower Hillgate.


For those lacking the knowledge, a quick visit to Stockport’s planning portal should offer up the information on what might be happening to these buildings, starting with an  application to change and develop the existing site, followed by a detailed description with plans, pictures, and reports on the environmental impact as well as a heritage report.

All of which concludes with an indication as to whether the application has been approved, and possible changes to the submitted plans.

I often trawl the Manchester portal not only to get an idea of what is going on, but because the heritage statements which detail the history of the building, the site and the area can be so fascinating.


But not so today, them that are curious to look up the site for themselves.

For now I am happy just to post these three pictures from Andy Robertson, who records the changes to places in Greater Manchester.  And once having found a place will keep going back, photographing the changes until a new building is open for business.
