The grade II listed building https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1162370 on the corner was Boots the Chemists until the 1970s. In more recent years (2013) it has been Mr Simms Olde Sweet Shoppe Image which in 2015 became the Eat Me Sweet Shop Image and then in 2018 Mrs Benson's Sweet Shop Image Now it is called Mrs Griffin's Traditional Sweet Shop. Bridge Street was once the main north-south route through the centre of Stockport leading here to the Market Place.
