Welcome to the Marple Website

50 year-old vintage Marple slide-show unearthed

It's amazing that an audio / slideshow created by Marple resident Hilda Bright in the 1960s has managed to survive intact for over 50 years. Long enough to be converted to digital by the Marple Website and shared with the local community.

Thank you to Cole and Fox Interior Design

Marple Library Staffed Hours Under Attack Again!

Despite 228 comments of objection from Marple residents last time they consulted on Open+ Stockport Council is now consulting on further cuts to staffed hours at Marple Library and others across the borough. 

The most important thing is that you Have Your Say! If you support this and want to choose your favourite time slot, then go ahead.

But if you don't agree with proposals for further reduction of staffed hours at Marple Library here are some suggestions.
