Business selling plants - Wilbraham Road, Chorlton
I'm not quite sure what you would call this place - 'garden centre' sounds rather too grand given the small scale On a small corner plot in a residential area, this place has lots of plants, as well as garden ornaments and possibly landscaping materials. I think it also extends in front of a derelict shop, just to the left. There doesn't seem to be a name for the business, and the only sign visible in this view advertises 'Land for Sale', suggesting a temporary use.

Steps to southbound platform, site of Chorlton cum Hardy station
The station at Chorlton-cum-Hardy fell to the Beeching axe and closed in 1967. The buildings and parts of the platforms were demolished shortly thereafter. The line remained open for freight only until 1988. When this photo was taken work was well under way to re-open the line, initially as far as St Werburgh's Road, as part of the expansion of the Metrolink tram network.
For many years these steps were hidden from view by vegetation. Clearance work for the Metrolink line and the new Chorlton tram stop meant they were once again visible. They have since been replaced with a new set at the same location. Behind the steps can be seen a surviving concrete lamppost.

Remains of ramp to southbound platform, Chorlton cum Hardy Station
The railway station at Chorlton-cum-Hardy fell to the Beeching axe and closed in 1967. The buildings and parts of the platforms were demolished shortly thereafter. The line remained open for freight only until 1988. Work was well under way to re-open the line, initially as far as St Werburgh's Road, as part of the expansion of the Metrolink tram network.
Steps and a ramp led down to the southbound platform from Wilbraham Road. Some of the vegetation had been cleared as part of preliminary works to clear the line, which probably accounts for the mangled state of the railings.
A new station has since been opened on the same site, named simply Chorlton.
