This pocket-sized guide provides a fascinating glimpse into the past of the town of Stockport in Greater Manchester. Some of its medieval past has been hidden by rapid expansion during the early part of the Industrial Revolution, but much still remains if you know where to look. Author Coral Dranfield takes readers on a tour around Stockport's streets and buildings, showing how its famous landmarks used to look and how they have changed over the years, as well as exploring some of its lesser-known sights and hidden corners. With the help of a handy location map, readers are invited to discover for themselves the history and the changing face of Stockport.
