Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E8PW1B - . Altrincham Interchange awards. Photographed on 27 March 2026. The recorded location is Altrincham, Greater Manchester, England, UK. Looking at bus route, the longer history is that the growth of integrated transport authorities has encouraged common branding, coordinated fares and closer links between buses, trams, cycling and rail, replacing a more fragmented pattern of separate operators. In 2026, bus route remains relevant because bus reliability, affordability and network coverage remain important , particularly for people without cars and for access to employment, education and healthcare. Other useful descriptive phrases include public transport, bus service, local bus, transport network, urban mobility, passenger transport, active travel, transport accessibility, local connectivity, sustainable transport, transport interchange, commuter travel, public service, and IMG_9787. The background to sustainable transport is that public transport networks continually evolve as operators change, fleets are replaced and routes are reorganised
Buses, trams and local services can become historical subjects surprisingly quickly because liveries, ticketing and vehicle types have short working lives. Within the history of public service, urban buses and local transport connect residential areas with town centres, employment, hospitals and stations
Their routes provide a practical map of how communities function and how transport policy changes over time. In relation to local bus, historical context shows that the growth of integrated transport authorities has encouraged common branding, coordinated fares and closer links between buses, trams, cycling and rail, replacing a more fragmented pattern of separate operators. Against the 2026 backdrop for public service, bus reliability, affordability and network coverage remain important , particularly for people without cars and for access to employment, education and healthcare.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JTD3PH - Cheshire Cat a new local bus service 2
BY DAVID SKENTELBERY ON 19TH JANUARY 2018 7:00 AMNEWS, VILLAGE LIFE
A PUBLIC roadshow will be held at Stockton Heath's Sandy Lane Community Centre on Wednesday, February 28 to highlight widespread improvements to bus services in South Warrington.
Bus company Network Warrington is to introduce the Cheshire Cat a newly branded network that will service the area south of the Ship Canal, starting later this year.
The changes will see buses in the south network simplified, improved and will also see the introduction of a new, cutting-edge bus fleet.
Cheshire Cat branded buses will include the latest transport essentials, including WiFi, skylights, extra leg room, comfy seats and USB charging points.
Network Warrington managing director Ben Wakerley said: I'm pleased that we're making big improvements to the south network that will hopefully have our customers purring. These are truly buses to be seen on!
This latest round of improvements follow our Dallam discount, hospital frequency increase, Pops network and £1.70 to Westy' initiatives, and I can't wait to unveil this further improvement.
We will be introducing 13 new vehicles onto the Cheshire Cat network to ensure that our fleet remains modern, fit for purpose and achieves improvements for the environment.
Cllr Ian Marks, Lymm North & Thelwall, was pleased about the prospect of network improvements, adding: I'm looking forward to seeing the positive changes delivered by Network Warrington and the proposed routing, giving better connections.
The improvements will be announced in full at the roadshow which will also give residents the chance to comment on the service changes before they are officially confirmed.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R5PNM1 - These images show a historic sundial sculpture depicting a Moor figure at Dunham Massey, near Altrincham in Greater Manchester (postcode WA14 4SJ). The sculpture forms part of the estate's historic garden landscape and is accompanied by an interpretive plaque explaining its origins and symbolism.
According to the plaque, the sundial is in the style of one commissioned during the reign of King William III and represents Africa as one of the four continents recognised in European thought at the time. The figure is described as a Moor rather than an enslaved person and is believed to have been positioned at the site since before 1750.
Such figures, often referred to historically as Blackamoor sculptures, were common decorative elements in European gardens and interiors during the 17th and 18th centuries. Today, they are understood within a broader historical and cultural context, prompting discussion about representation, colonial perspectives, and the values embedded in historic art and landscape design.
The sculpture is shown holding a metal sundial aloft, set against the backdrop of the red-brick mansion and formal grounds of Dunham Massey. The inclusion of the explanatory plaque reflects the National Trust's approach to interpreting historic objects transparently and responsibly.
Photographed in daylight, these images are well suited to editorial use covering historic estates, garden sculpture, heritage interpretation, National Trust properties, art history, and contemporary engagement with complex historical narratives.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DHGYCN - . Panorama of the Green Room, Dunham Massey, NT property, Altrincham, Cheshire, England UK. Photographed on 15 September 2013. The recorded location is Dunham Massey, Altrincham, Cheshire, England, UK WA14 4SJ. Historically, landscape photographs record more than scenery: buildings, vegetation, weather, transport and land use combine to show how a place appeared at a particular moment
Repeated views can later become valuable evidence of development, environmental change and shifting patterns of use. Looking at the subject's development, murals, sculptures and civic artworks turn public space into a record of local culture
They can commemorate people and events, respond to politics, celebrate industry or simply enliven streets, while the artists' materials and styles place the work within a particular period. The wider historical story is that visitor attractions based on historic houses, industrial sites and specialist collections combine conservation with education
Exhibits can change over time, so photographs also document how institutions presented their collections at a specific date. In 2026, current interest in climate and place-making gives atmospheric landscape photographs added documentary value, particularly where weather, coastlines or urban development are prominent. For the 2026 context, public art and murals remain important to place-making, tourism and regeneration, particularly in city districts where street art has become part of the visitor economy
They also raise questions about conservation, ownership, temporary work and the rapid redevelopment of urban neighbourhoods. The historical context is that panoramic and atmospheric views place individual landmarks within their wider setting
Light, season and weather affect how architecture and landscape are perceived, while distant development can provide clues to the changing form of a town or coastline.

The recorded location is Dunham Massey, Altrincham, Cheshire, England, UK. Commissioned by Lord Warrington for the Great Bedchamber at Dunham Massey. Archambo was an eminent Huguenot goldsmith.
Provenance. Formerly in the collection of George Booth, 2nd Earl of Warrington (1675-1758)
now at Sotheby's. As background, historic interiors combine architecture with material culture
Furniture, clocks, silverware, screens, organs and decorative schemes can reveal craftsmanship, status and institutional use in ways that a façade alone cannot convey. In the longer view, museums and heritage attractions turn surviving objects and places into interpreted public history
Displays, reconstructed rooms and preserved machinery can place everyday artefacts within broader stories of work, domestic life, conflict, design and technological change. Against the 2026 backdrop, restoration projects increasingly emphasise retaining significant interiors as well as façades, making earlier photographs useful evidence when rooms are refurbished, repurposed or opened to visitors. Current 2026 relevance comes from the fact that heritage attractions increasingly combine physical collections with digital interpretation and events, but the authenticity of original objects and settings continues to be central to their appeal. From a heritage perspective, interiors preserve details that exterior photographs cannot show: furniture, fittings, decorative finishes and room layouts reveal how structures were actually used
Such features are often altered during refurbishment even when the outside remains unchanged. As of 2026, restoration projects increasingly emphasise retaining significant interiors as well as façades, making earlier photographs useful evidence when rooms are refurbished, repurposed or opened to visitors.

This is a track from the album Black Cherry. Many critics complimented its blend of retro and modern electropop music (going back to the Mute labels roots), which was a departure from the ambient sound of their debut.
Black Cherry was a top twenty album in Goldfrapp's native UK, and its second single 'Strict Machine' was a top twenty single. It earned the band a deserved nomination for Best British Dance Act at the 2004 BRIT Awards.
She is a fascinating vocalist to see live. Be sure to take your partner or a lady friend if a bloke, or you may be chatted up all night at the gig. She has a large pink following. Nothing wrong with that, just enjoy the music and w=33062170@N08&

This is ye olde oak at Dunham Massey outside Altrincham, Cheshire. It is has been dated and thought to have been a seedling at the time of Queen Elizabeth the 1st. It has certainly had a life yet still produces healthy branches. 500 years is a long time.
Dunham Massey used to be on the Chester to York road in medieval times. The Masseys were the barons of Dunham until the 14th century.
By the Elizabeth period when our seedling took root, Dunham Massey Castle had been demolished. Probably during the medieval period, Dunham Massey Hall became the home of the manorial lord, and a centre of power in the area. The hall was rebuilt in 1616, leaving no remains of the old medieval hall. The mill at Dunham was first documented in 1353, although the mill's present structure dates to the 1860s. It lies on the River Bollin, opposite Little Bollington.
The first record of Dunham's deer park was also in 1353. The settlement of Dunham Woodhouse dates from the 15th century. During the medieval period, the primary source of employment in Dunham Massey was agriculture, mainly arable.
The Warrington and Stockport Railway was constructed through Dunham during 1853/54. Dunham Massey railway station served the area between 1854 and its closure in 1962. Dunham grew as a result, the population increasing by 57.5% between 1851 and 1881. Otherwise, the industrial revolution had little effect on Dunham Massey, and it remained a predominantly agricultural area.
I often cycle over to Dunham and can recommend the Vine, super pint of Samual Smiths Best Bitter. Only a stones throw from the hall &
deer park.

\u00bfWhats this iPod Shuffle set all about? Read about it here
I remember Gary Numan coming out of the left field in 1979 with heavy synthesizer hooks fed through guitar effects pedals. At the time the likes of the Silicon Teens and The Normal (Warm Leatherette seemed to have the post punk synth sound licked.
Hammersmith boy, Gary Webb was original front man for Tubeway Army. 'Down In The Park' was Tubeway Armys third single and appeared on the Replicas album.
Replicas was based on a book Numan hoped to complete someday as a type of concept album. It was set in a not-too-distant future metropolis where Machmen (androids with cloned human skin) and other machines keep the general public cowed on orders from the Grey Men (shadowy officials).
Numan was directly inspired by the science fiction of Philip K. Dick, particularly the book 'Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?'.
Numan has become acknowledged and respected by his peers, with such musicians as Dave Grohl (of Foo Fighters and Nirvana), Trent Reznor (of Nine Inch Nails), and Marilyn Manson proclaiming his work an influence and recording cover versions of old Numan hits. If you have chance and inclination, checkout the 'Premier Hits' compilation for a good into to this forgotten pioneer.

Dunham Park covers an area of over 190 acres and is part of the Dunham Park Estate, run by the National Trust (NT). The park is mostly \u201cpasture-woodland or park-woodland\u201d and has been since the Middle Ages. Many of the oak trees, which make up the larger part of the woodland, date back to the 17th century. Dunham Park is the only place in the northwest of England with such a concentration of old trees, and one of only a few remaining in England, making it a site of national importance. The park supports a range of animals, including fallow deer. The old water mill is pictured here. This image has been take using a Hoya R72 filter for infra red.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JCR530 - Altrincham Market House photographed in the town centre on a summer evening, with warm string lights glowing under a canopy that runs along the side of the building. The scene captures the atmosphere of a modern food and drink venue set within a historic market hall: a red brick structure with large arched windows and a formal gable end, designed for daylight and volume, now repurposed for eating, meeting and socialising. Outdoor benches, planters and simple furniture create an informal terrace feel, while the lighting transforms the space into something inviting and festive, suggesting the early evening period when people start to gather for food, beer and conversation.
The sky shows late daylight rather than full darkness, with a soft blue tone and patches of cloud that read as warm-weather conditions. There are no hard shadows and the light on the brickwork feels gentle, consistent with dusk or the long evenings of late spring and summer. The ground looks dry, with no visible rain sheen, reinforcing the impression of settled weather. This combination of visible hospitality lighting and remaining daylight gives the image strong seasonal cues, and it works well for editorial use where the mood of summer evening in town is as important as the building itself.
Altrincham Market and Market House are widely promoted as a key part of the town's Market Quarter and a flagship example of high street and town centre revival, where historic civic buildings have been adapted to support independent traders and modern leisure. The photograph suits themes such as regeneration, visitor economy, UK food halls, street food culture, independent retail and hospitality, and the way northern town centres are rebuilding footfall by combining heritage architecture with contemporary social spaces. The strong architectural frontage, visible lighting, and uncluttered setting make it a flexible establishing shot for features on Greater Manchester dining, nightlife, and the changing role

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2BCTGR8 - Stockport is a large, major town in Greater Manchester, England, 7 miles (11 km) south-east of Manchester city centre, where the River Goyt and Tame merge to create the River Mersey, and the largest in the metropolitan borough of the same name.
Historically, most of the town was in Cheshire, but the area to the north of the Mersey was in Lancashire. Stockport in the 16th century was a small town entirely on the south bank of the Mersey, and known for the cultivation of hemp and manufacture of rope. In the 18th century the town had one of the first mechanised silk factories in the British Isles. However, Stockport's predominant industries of the 19th century were the cotton and allied industries. Stockport was also at the centre of the country's hatting industry, which by 1884 was exporting more than six million hats a year
the last hat works in Stockport closed in 1997.
Dominating the western approaches to the town is the Stockport Viaduct. Built in 1840, the viaduct's 27 brick arches carry the mainline railways from Manchester to Birmingham and London over the River Mersey. This structure featured as the background in many paintings by L. S. Lowry.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy P307AH - Altrincham Market is shown busy with shoppers, flower stalls and independent traders in the regenerated market quarter of Altrincham, Trafford, Greater Manchester. The image shows the open market area beside the timber-framed covered structure, with potted plants, bouquets, gazebos, luggage and retail stalls set out across the paved public space. People browse and chat in a relaxed town-centre setting under a cloudy early-season sky, giving the photograph a strong everyday documentary feel. Altrincham has long market-town roots, with its market charter dating back to 1290, but the modern revival of the Market House and surrounding streets has made it a widely cited example of successful high-street regeneration in North West England. The scene is useful for editorial coverage of retail revival, town centre renewal, local authority regeneration, independent food halls, markets, small businesses, place-making, public realm investment, hospitality-led footfall and the reinvention of traditional shopping streets. It also works for comparisons with destination food markets such as Borough Market in Southwark, while retaining a distinct Greater Manchester character: smaller scale, suburban, mixed retail and strongly linked to local community life. The timber canopy, brick buildings, white tents and outdoor flower displays show a market environment that blends heritage, leisure, food, drink, shopping and social activity rather than relying only on conventional chain retail. Altrincham Market has been associated with the town's wider comeback, drawing visitors, raising footfall and supporting cafés, bars, restaurants and specialist traders. This photograph can illustrate debates about changing town centres, the decline of old retail models, the value of markets as anchors, council regeneration, independent enterprise, sustainable local shopping, visitor economy, Trafford prosperity and the appeal of public spaces where people can shop, eat, meet and linger.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy E6J32W - Metrolink is a light rail system in Greater Manchester, England. The network consists of six lines which radiate from Manchester city centre and terminate at Altrincham, Ashton-under-Lyne, Bury, Didsbury, Eccles, and Rochdale. The system is owned by Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) and operated and maintained under contract by RATP In 2013/14, 29.2 million passenger journeys were made on the system, also known as Manchester Metrolink.
A light rail system for Greater Manchester was borne of Greater Manchester County Council's obligations to provide an integrated and efficient system of public transport under its structure plan and the Transport Act 1968. Greater Manchester's public transport network suffered from poor northsouth connections, exacerbated by the location of Manchester's main railway stations, Piccadilly and Victoria, which were unconnected and lay at opposite edges of central Manchester. Abandoning the monorail and underground options conceived in the 1960s and 1970s, light rail was proposed in 1982 as the best and most economical public transport solution for Manchester city centre and the surrounding Greater Manchester metropolitan area, and gathered support throughout the 1980s as an appropriate integrated commuter service.
Government approval was granted in 1988 and the network began operating services between Bury Interchange and Victoria on 6 April 1992. This founded the United Kingdom's first modern street-running rail system and its second operational public tram system, the 1885-built Blackpool tramway being the only heritage tram system in the UK that had endured up to Metrolink's creation.
Metrolink has 77 stops along 48.5 miles (78.1 km) of standard-gauge track routed through seven of the ten boroughs of Greater Manchester. The system has a mix of designated light railway (segregated from other traffic) and on-street tramway.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2BCTGHE - A fingerpost (sometimes referred to as a guide post) is a traditional type of sign post primarily used in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland, consisting of a post with one or more arms, known as fingers, pointing in the direction of travel to places named on the fingers. The posts have traditionally been made from cast iron or wood, with poles painted in black, white or grey and fingers with black letters on a white background, often including distance information in miles. In most cases, they are used to give guidance for road users, but examples also exist on the canal network, for instance. They are also used to mark the beginning of a footpath, bridleway, or similar public path.
Legislation was enacted in England in 1697 which enabled magistrates to place direction posts at cross-highways. However, the oldest fingerpost still extant is thought to be that close to Chipping Campden in Gloucestershire, dated 1669 and pointing to Oxford, Warwick, Gloucester and Worcester (abbreviated to 'Gloster' and 'Woster'). The Highways Act 1766 and Turnpike Roads Act 1773 made use of fingerposts on turnpike roads compulsory.
The Motor Car Act 1903 passed road sign responsibilities to the relevant highway authority within the then United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, although no specifications were set. Guidance was given in a 1921 circular that road direction signs should have 2 1⁄2-or-3-inch-high (64 or 76 mm) upper case lettering on a white background and white supporting poles. It also recommended that the name of the highway authority be included somewhere in the design.
Mandatory standards (The Traffic Signs (Size, Colour and Type) Provisional Regulations) were passed for Great Britain in 1933 which required poles to painted with black and white bands and lettering to be of a different typeface. Signposts were removed across much of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland during World War II.
