Marple Bridge

Marple Bridge is a charming and friendly village situated on the outskirts of Stockport and just 9 miles (as the crow flies) from Manchester city centre.  It’s one of those ‘best of both worlds’ locations; close enough to the city and transport links for commuters yet sits on the edge of the Peak District with rolling countryside on the doorstep.

The village centre is around 2 miles from the property where you'll find a small selection of independent shops, cafes and public houses.   A little further on is the town of Marple offering a wider range of amenities.  Transport links are excellent and Marple railway station, with regular services to Manchester Piccadilly in under 30 minutes, is just over 5 minutes drive. Commuting by car has never been more convenient with the A555 linking Hazel Grove to Manchester Airport with the A34, John Lewis at Cheadle and Handforth Dean, home to M&S, Tesco and more, eminently more accessible. Charlesworth is just over 2 miles from the property with Glossop another 2 miles from there.  

The property is within the catchment area for the Ofsted 'Outstanding' Ludworth Primary School with St Mary’s Catholic Primary close by.  For those with children of secondary school age, there is Marple Hall School or Harrytown Catholic School.

As you might expect in a semi-rural location, there are plenty of delightful areas of countryside to explore, just stone’s throw from the Peak District. A walk into the hills will allow panoramic views of both town and countryside encompassing Edale and Kinder to the east and Greater Manchester to the west and on a clear day, as far as Runcorn.
