Stockport Hydro, located at Otterspool Weir on Mill Lane in Romiley, Stockport (SK6 7HE), is a community-owned hydroelectric scheme that has been generating renewable energy since 2012 [1]. While the site doesn't have regular public opening hours, they occasionally host open afternoons where visitors can tour the facility and learn about its operations. For instance, an open afternoon was held on November 24, 2024 [2]. To stay informed about upcoming events, it's advisable to check their official website or contact them directly. Additionally, the site is adjacent to a public footpath shared by the Midshires Way, a long-distance hiking trail, making it accessible for walkers who wish to view the facility from the outside.

The small sacred monument, known as the "Mellor Cross," located in a very prominent location here, commemorates the co-founder of the Methodist Church, John Wesley. The search for traces takes us back to the history of the 18th century, as the famous preacher lived from 1703 to 1791. Two short quotations, one from the early period and one from a later period, may give the interested reader a brief insight into the thought world of this unusual man: + "Tell everyone of the love of God, for the world is our church" (1739) + "Do everything for the good of people and creation" (1781)

Visiting Mellor Cross offers a rewarding experience, combining breathtaking panoramic views with a touch of local history. While the current cross is a modern replacement, its location holds potential links to early Christian activity. The site's elevated position provides stunning vistas of the Cheshire Plain and Peak District hills, making it ideal for photography, particularly during sunrise or sunset. Remember that the area is exposed, so prepare for windy conditions, and wear suitable footwear for the sometimes steep walk.

Embrace the Rural Charm: The Fox Inn is nestled in the hamlet of Brookbottom, providing a tranquil escape. It's a popular spot for walkers, so expect a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. The pub itself is known for its traditional, cosy feel, often featuring a welcoming log fire, especially during colder months. It also has plenty of outdoor seating. Combine with a Walk: It is a great place to stop on a walking trip. Many walking routes pass by the fox inn, and therefore it is ideal to combine a visit to the pub, with a walk in the surrounding countryside.

When visiting Mellor Mill Ruins in Marple, wear sturdy footwear, as the paths can be uneven and muddy, especially after rain. Take time to explore the information boards—they provide great historical context about the mill and Samuel Oldknow’s industrial legacy. For the best experience, combine your visit with a walk along the Peak Forest Canal or the River Goyt for stunning scenery!
