1823 Cottages


Walk up Stockport Road past the Werneth Hotel at the bottom of Treacle Brow and before you reach the junction where the old signpost is, you'll find this set of stone steps leading up to Mottram Old Road.

The cottages on Mottram Old Road date from 1823.

I think the oldest house here or near here probably dates from the late 1890's...like 1899....

I'd love to know a little of the history of the people who lived in these cottages.
