Legend has it that Tallyrand is named after a French nobleman http://wapedia.mobi/en/Talleyrand who found refuge nearby at the time of the French Revolution. The road from left to right connects Levenshulme http://wapedia.mobi/en/Levenshulme and Reddish, and the peculiar S-bend follows ancient field boundaries.
