The view is from the Brocklehurst Memorial Gardens behind Macclesfield Town Hall, and the quote is from the commemorative stone at the north end Image The delightful, intimate valleys and hills east of Macc (as it's affectionately called locally) are the western edge of the Peak District, seen here across the Manchester-Stoke railway, the Silk Road, the Arighi Bianchi furniture store, new apartments off the Buxton Road and Macc's leafy hillside suburbs.
