Introduction District centres are of vital importance for Stockport’s residents and play a central part of civic life across the Borough. In order to better support these district centres, the Council has begun a partnership with the Institute of Place Management (IPM) based at Manchester Metropolitan University, which is internationally recognised for its work in understanding how places function ad supporting their success. The project will support the joint Communities & Housing and Economy & Regeneration Scrutiny Review into District Centres and help develop a long-term strategy for Stockport’s district centres that is rigorous, deliverable, and based upon the latest objective evidence. This work will, in turn, have a measurable impact upon the sustainability and liveability of Stockport's existing centres as places that serve the needs of their catchment communities, and support thriving, relevant, and accessible district centres across Stockport. Each of the eight district centres has unique characteristics, as well as its own strengths and challenges.

More often than not a man, uniformed, close to retirement age, and – in the mind’s eye at least – carrying a pointed stick for collecting litter.

  • Uncertain Prospects Public Parks in the New Age of Austerity a Short Report by the Gardens Trust
    Uncertain Prospects Public parks in the new age of austerity A short report by The Gardens Trust Uncertain Prospects Public parks in the new age of austerity A short report by The Gardens Trust written by Katy Layton-Jones 2016 Preface This report has been written in response to increasing alarm about the effect of budget cuts on councils’ capacity to maintain their public parks. That alarm has been most recently embodied in a House of Commons Select Committee inquiry into the future of public parks, held in the autumn of 2016. The Gardens Trust was formed in 2015 from the merger of the Garden History Society and the Association of Gardens Trusts. It has inherited the GHS role as a national amenity society and a statutory consultee on planning applications affecting parks and gardens on the national Register. It is also the umbrella group for the network of 36 county gardens trusts in England and is affiliated to the Welsh Historic Gardens Trust. In 2016 the Gardens Trust published The Planning System in England and the Protection of Historic Parks and Gardens: Guidance for Local Planning Authorities. The report was written by Dr Katy Layton-Jones, an independent historical consultant. In 2005 she was engaged as a Research Associate on the Liverpool Parks and Open Spaces project, a collaboration between Liverpool City Council, the University of Liverpool, and English Heritage. She has since been commissioned to research parks and parks policy for a number of organisations including Historic England and local authorities. She has researched and published widely on the subject of public parks.
