Old Manor Farm, Marple

Old Manor Farm is a 15th-century hall in Marple, Stockport, historically in Cheshire, now within Greater Manchester, England. Built in the 15th century, it has had additions made in the 16th, 17th and 20th centuries. Called "one of the finest existing examples of a small medieval manor house in Lancashire or Cheshire", it is a Grade II* listed building. Marple has five nationally important buildings, listed by Historic England as either Grade I or Grade II. One of these is Old Manor Farm, tucked away above the Marple Brook which runs in the valley near Dan Bank. Described by Pevsner as "a small medieval manor house, the central part timber-framed, probably 15th-century, with a two-bay hall of cruck construction. Later wings were added, the service wing of stone, the other half-timber." Its importance was recognised in 1951 when it was featured in Cheshire Life magazine as one of the "Homes of Cheshire".

Rose Hill Marple is one of two railway stations that serve the town of Marple, in the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport, Greater Manchester, England; the other is Marple. The station, which opened in 1869, is the last surviving stop on the former Macclesfield, Bollington and Marple Railway (MB&MR). It is connected via a short branch to the Hope Valley Line. The original line to Macclesfield was closed in January 1970, leaving Rose Hill Marple as the terminus of the route; the Middlewood Way, a shared-use path, now follows the preserved route of the disused MB&MR.
