Trips 2024 - 2025
The Society's trips began this season with an outing to Stockport Staircase House.
We visited Staircase House in Stockport Town centre on a grey and characterless day which seemed to match the front of the building which is fairly nondescript. The interior, though, is most interesting. Judith Wilshaw’s husband Eddie acted as our tour guide as he was the Project Officer for the renovation of the house so has extensive knowledge about it.
It is an excellent example of great commitment and enthusiastic determination by Stockport Council and others to preserve and restore an old building of historical importance that has been awarded Grade 2* listed building status. Unusually for such an old building, there is an almost continuous record of its evolution over time.
