Welcome to the Marple Website

Relocation of Brabyns Iron Bridge Bronze Plaque

As many people will know, the Marple Website was the driving force behind the restoration of the Iron Bridge in Brabyns Park. This lengthy project began in 2001 and restoration was completed in 2008. The web site is working with Friends of Brabyns Park and the Council to secure the future of the Bronze Plaque installed in 2009 and is pleased to report that funding for Stage One of the project was achieved in June 2020.
