About

Edgeley sits immediately north-east of Stockport town centre, within Greater Manchester.

Local high streets contain independent shops, takeaways and civic services, and several primary schools serve the neighbourhood. Edgeley railway station provides a short rail link into Stockport and Manchester, and local bus routes connect to surrounding suburbs and the town centre.
