Welcome to the Marple Website

The Strange Haunting of Marple Hall and the family who lived there

The Marple Website and Marple Local History Society are delighted to have been able to help author Steve Cliffe by providing many of the wonderful images used in a new book about Marple Hall from the Virtual History Tour of Marple.

"The Tour" is a long-term collaboration between the web site and the society. It contains over 200 images relating to the hall and, at the time of writing, almost 14,000 local images in total that have been viewed nearly 4.5 million times.

Thank you to Brabyns Preparatory School

Marple Poppy Appeal 2019: £18,000 and counting!

The Marple Poppy Appeal has once again been a great success as we have raised over £18,000 to date (still counting) and we cannot thank the people of Marple and the surrounding areas enough for their continued support and generosity, especially in these somewhat difficult and uncertain times.
