Marple Wharf Update - July 2013

From the Marple Civic Society Newsletter. . .

NEWS IN BRIEF: The Civic Society is due to meet with the Canal & River Trust (CRT) on the 9th August 2013 to discuss the future of Marple Wharf.

The Civic Society, on behalf of the community, has led a four and a half year campaign to resist dense housing development on the site. The site calls for a community-led multi-use scheme which respects its heritage and fits with the Vision for Marple.

The Vision for Marple is a dynamic regeneration document which originally comprised a set of canal related regeneration projects, including Marple Wharf, but has since expanded to include the town centre and surrounding areas of Marple.
