Everything about Brinnington totally explained
Brinnington is a north-eastern suburb of
Stockport,
Greater Manchester. It is situated on a bluff above a bend in the
Tame Valley and is an area of vast regeneration, it consists mainly of
council owned dwellings including
high rise flats. Brinnington is an area of
poverty and
deprivation -- with high crime levels and long-term unemployment at 20%. Brinnington was once an area of open farm land, but then as in many other areas the land was required in the local authority housing developments of the 1950s and 1960s. To the west of Brinnington is an area known as
Reddish Vale, a
country park. This is a popular area for families to go for a walk and explore the ponds and brick viaducts. Here you can see another popular spot under the arches where there's a sharp bend in the river and sand has been deposited giving the effect of a miniature "beach". Brinnington is served by
Brinnington railway station on the
Hope Valley Line from
Sheffield to
Manchester.
Brinnigton has three churches: St. Bernadette's (
Roman Catholic), St. Luke's (
Anglican), and Brinnington
Evangelical Church.
There are four primary schools: St. Bernadette's, St. Paul's, Tame Valley and Westmorland, the latter being an amalgamation of the former Brindale and Maycroft Primary Schools in 2000. Westmorland is particularly focused on the arts and has a good school
orchestra. Note that Tame Valley may be closing down while Westmorland may be expanding.
Hollow End Towers in the Brinnington Housing Estate was the scene for one of the leading cases on the
law of
nuisance, in
Transco plc. v. Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council.
