The actual Chapel building is currently closed. You can still walk around the stunning gardens. See the building from the outside which is several hundred years old. Along with the flattened gravestones. Beautiful spring flowers in bloom on the visit. In the adjoining garden. There is a bird feeding area which attracts numerous birds. Chadkirk well is not far away and has a well dressing festival. Walks all around. A peaceful oasis has benches to sit on

This spectacular flight of sixteen working locks - surrounded by some beautiful wooded countryside and scenic walks - raises the canal 209 feet to reach a height of 518 feet above sea level at Marple.

Time-travel from Palaeolithic to present day Stockport to experience the town’s entire history under one roof. Explore the fantastic finds from Mellor Iron Age hilltop settlement, life in medieval times, the thriving textile industry of the Victorian era as well as the impact of World War I. The doors are now open to our brand new family gallery which has been designed to help imaginations run wild, it is a space where anything is possible. In partnership with illustrator Becca Hall, the museum has been reimagined for younger visitors. A new character, Museum Mouse, has been created to take people on a gallery adventure to discover favourite objects from the Museum’s collection. Visitors of all ages will be able to learn about everything from Ancient Egypt, animals and nature to toys and shopping.

Visited on a Friday for the Bands FC Exhibition, tied in nicely with the Strawberry Studios floor of the museum. Great for fans of football and music in addition to your expected museum subjects such as local history and science. Gift shop reasonably priced and staff were in high spirits even with the news that an online consultation threatens to shut this great place down. Stockport is meant to be expanding, not shrinking! Use your free museums more people.

Lovely park, dam, woods and boating lake. We visit Ethrow park quite frequently and always enjoy it. The wooded area surrounds a central lake so it’s easy to stick to a route without getting lost! Along the boating lake is a quiet path that usually has people fishing and the ducks and geese wander along the path which is nice, the path leads to the dam which is always nice to see. A cafe and little ice cream parlour are situated near the car park for refreshments. It’s a lovely park for walking and we usually find new parts to explore that we haven’t seen before. Highly recommend

Dropped in yesterday while on a walk with my grandchildren. My first visit back there since lockdown. The young lady behind the bar was super friendly and made us feel very welcome. The boys really enjoyed the new play equipment. Next time we'll be back for food.

Reviewed By Garfresco - Manchester, United Kingdom
After lockdown I have made several visits to the Magnet, and its as good as before. Still with a great selection of around 20 beers of various different styles. The pub is very good with Covid precautions, with you been asked to Sanitise on entry, and contact details taken. The pub has extended the Beer Garden, so if you want to drink outdoors it has plenty of space.
