About  Stockport   

The historical centre of Stockport is the Market Place which is situated on a 240 million year old Red Sandstone cliff, this overlooks what was once a important ford over the R. Mersey. This ford was the meeting point of several Roman roads. The Saxons established a village on the site and this was the beginning of Stockport, but there is no mention of this in the Doomsday Book.
