Brinnington

Brinnington is seen as one of Stockport council's priority areas for investment and regeneration and has received £1m funding from the National Lottery. Many of the properties in the area belong to Stockport Homes and the 'Three Sisters' (high rise tower blocks) of Brecon, Conway and Ludlow Towers are prominent landmarks. A precinct outside First House, off Brinnington Road, provides a small shopping area and there are three primary schools but no high school.
