About

Beech Road is the high street in Chorlton-cum-Hardy, lined with independent shops, cafes, bars and small businesses. It runs from near Chorlton Green and forms a local hub. Weekly and occasional events spill onto the pavement; specialist food shops sit alongside bike repair and bookshops. Houses and terraces back the street and side streets lead down towards the river valley. Local travel is by bus and bike, and there are pedestrian links to the green spaces that frame the neighbourhood.

Just south of the street the Chorlton Meadows floodplain lies beside the River Mersey. The area known as Chorlton Ees and Ivy Green is managed as a nature reserve with paths that follow the river and drainage channels, connecting to the wider Mersey Valley corridor. Reedbeds, willow carr and patches of grassland provide habitat and seasonal flood storage; footbridges and waymarkers help cross channels after wet weather. The meadows are used for walking, dog exercise and quiet wildlife observation by local people.
