TOWN CENTRE SHOPPING AREAS

Warren Street
Here you can pick up books, visit popular high street names, grab a bite to eat, book a holiday and even do your food shopping.

Underbanks & Hillgate
Below the Market Place, run the Underbanks - Stockport's alternative quarter made up of a maze of twisting side streets, many of which still bear their original medieval names. Here the streets are characterised by quaint shop fronts and specialist shops selling quirky and gifts, from funky hand made jewellery to musical instruments, and street cafe's where you can take a break from shopping.r.

Peel Centre
To the east of the town centre lies the Peel Centre, a large, busy retail park which is home to every kind of superstore you could possible imagine - electrical, furniture, clothing, books and toys.

The Courts
Stockport's former Magistrate's Court has found a new lease of life as the town centre's newest retail complex, offering shoppers big brand names such as TK Maxx, Caffe Nero, MK One JJB Sports.
