Stockport info
Stockport is a metropolitan borough
in Greater Manchester, in North West England.
With a population of 284,528 (2001), Stockport
is one of the largest towns in the United Kingdom.
It is governed by Stockport Metropolitan Borough
Council
Stockport was originally a Saxon village. Its
name is derived from two Saxon words: STOC - a
stockaded place or castle, and PORT - a wood.
Literally, a castle in a wood.
Stockport has never been a sea or river port.
The river Mersey at Stockport is not navigable
to anything much above canoe size, and in the
center of Stockport has been culverted and the
main shopping street Mersey Way built above it.

around the A6, as well as several areas including:

About Manchester
Manchester
is a city in the north-west of
England. The metropolitan borough of Manchester,
with a population of 422,302, lies at the heart
of a large conurbation called Greater
Manchester, with a population of 2,513,468.
Greater Manchester is also a
metropolitan county in England
established in 1974 which covers an area roughly
encompassing the conurbation of Manchester. It
is situated in North West England. It has borders
with the ceremonial counties of Cheshire (inc.
Warrington), Derbyshire, West Yorkshire, Lancashire
(inc. Blackburn with Darwen) and Merseyside. As
well as Manchester, the county includes major
centres such as Salford,
Bury, Bolton,
Stockport and Wigan.
Greater Manchester is not entirely built-up. Although
Manchester forms a conurbation along with Salford,
Trafford and Stockport,
other boroughs, such as Wigan
and Bury are clearly separate.
Towns in the
Manchester urban area include Salford,
Sale, Altrincham,
Cheadle, Stockport,
Ashton-under-Lyne,
and Oldham, Bury,
Rochdale, Stockport
and Stretford. Places
like Trafford and
Salford can be considered
part of the Manchester urban area in a way that
Wigan or Bolton
are not.
The term "Manchester" is often used
to refer to the entire conurbation, much as "London"
is usually used to mean Greater London, but many
of the constituent parts of Greater Manchester,
such as Salford, Wigan and Bolton, also have separate
identities. People from Manchester are called
Mancunians.
