Hollywood Park Community Orchard
Image: © Gerald England Taken: 9 Feb 2016
One of 12 community orchards in Stockport http://www.stockport.gov.uk/services/transport/highwayandstreetlightmaintenance/trees/communityorchards/ established around 2011. I was told by a passing dog-walker that it was originally a bowling green. Aerial views would seem to indicate that it was once a football pitch. It looks rather neglected but that may be just the time of year.
