About

Bredbury sits in the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport, east of Stockport town centre and within Greater Manchester. The M60 orbital motorway crosses the area and the A560 runs through it, giving direct road links across the conurbation. Bredbury railway station provides regular services to Manchester Piccadilly and to stations to the east. The centre is built around a parade of shops, cafés, a library and community halls that serve surrounding streets, with a parish church, St Mark’s, close to the main road as a local landmark.

Housing ranges from late‑Victorian terraces to post‑war semi‑detached streets, while a large industrial estate sits north of the railway alongside smaller business parks and workshops. Pockets of open space and playing fields are woven into the neighbourhood and walking routes lead out towards the green belt at the edge of the suburb. Local schools, sports clubs and community groups run events in halls and on the playing fields, and everyday life is shaped by the mix of commuter rail, motorway access and nearby employment in light industry and retail.
