King Edwards Court


King Edwards Court is a small development of new houses built in an old quarry off King Edward Avenue.

Stockport Road and the Werneth Arms lie behind the big quarry wall. Last July I posted a view from the top of Treacle Brow showing the houses under construction and then in April 2009 the new houses completed.

About a century ago this area was known as Whittiker's Whim about which you can see and read something of on Old Hyde.

A clearer view of the quarry wall and the Werneth Hotel can be found on Hyde DP Xtra.

Believe me that it was a joy to see red brick buildings, as more than a year has passed since last I saw them on me own.
A wonderful, colour filled weeekend for you.
