Stockport has Victorian suburbs, a large semi belt, and 24 conservation areas carrying an Article 4 Direction.
Stockport Council lists 37 conservation areas and 24 of them carry an Article 4 Direction. We build a rules page that lists them, a slate page for Edgeley and the Heatons, a tile page for Bramhall and a separate flat roof page. See it live before you pay a penny, keep your domain, live in 7 days.
Valuation Office stock table CTSOP4.1, stock at 31 March 2025, covers 133,540 Stockport dwellings. 19.3% were built before 1919 and 42.0% before 1945. 34.4% date from 1945 to 1972 and 7.9% from 2000 or later. The borough figure is the published local authority total, and the district lines further down are our own totals of the same table over the census areas that make each district up.
Census 2021 table TS044 records 41.2% semi detached, 21.6% detached, 20.9% terraced and 13.2% purpose built flats. On our totals Edgeley is 69.0% built before 1900 and 71.8% before 1945, Heaton Moor is 22.9% pre 1919, Heaton Mersey 20.6% pre 1919, and Bramhall 41.9% built between 1945 and 1972 with 4.5% pre 1919.
Two kinds of roof sit behind those figures: slate with valleys and chimney work on the Victorian suburbs, and concrete tile across the inter war and post war semis. We would give each its own page, with the jobs you have taken in Edgeley, the Heatons and Bramhall named and photographed.
69.0 per cent of dwellings built before 1900 and 71.8 per cent before 1945 (Valuation Office stock tables, 2025). Alexandra Park Edgeley is a conservation area with an Article 4(2) Direction.

Tile roofs on larger semis and detached houses, garden room and extension flat roofs, and the higher value full re roof.
Cheadle Village, Brooklyn Crescent and Hulme Hall Road, Swann Lane and Hill Top Avenue all carry Article 4(1) and 4(2) Directions (Stockport Council).
Conservation area repair work where permitted development rights have been removed. The page would explain which jobs need permission and say that you check the address first.
Stockport Council lists 37 conservation areas. Twenty four of them carry an Article 4 Direction, among them Alexandra Park, Heaton Moor, Heaton Mersey, Bramhall Park, Bramhall Lane South, Cale Green, Davenport Park, Hillgate, Cheadle Village and Mauldeth Road, and six carry both an Article 4(1) and an Article 4(2).
The council states that inside a conservation area there are extra planning controls over demolition and minor development.
We would build a page that lists those areas, explains which jobs need permission, and says that you check the address against the conservation area boundary and against any Article 4 direction before you quote.
