Richmond Hill, Macclesfield
One of the few remaining cobbled roads in Macclesfield. Although roads intended for heavy wear used expensive granite shipped in from elsewhere this in common with many lesser roads appears to have used local stone probably from the Kerridge quarries or Teggs Nose which was closer. Beyond the white house the road is carried by a bridge that slope up over the Macclesfield Canal.

Black Road, Macclesfield, looking north
The pub, flying a flag of St George almost as big as the pub, is called The Hollins and it's for sale. The 1871 map shows it as the Bee Hive public house.
The Hollins takes its name from a farm to the southeast, there in 1871. Streetmap still shows it as Hollins Farm but it is unconvincing as a working farm, being surrounded by Macclesfield Golf Course.
The wall on the left is the boundary of King George's Field, aka The Tip recreation ground.

WWII Cheshire: Macclesfield roadblock, Macclesfield Canal

Roadblock: DoB ID: S0000231
Clearly visible today on the approach to the bridge over the Macclesfield Canal are the remains of four sets of concrete sockets to take 8 vertical rails. A defensive measure, the rails were intended to be removable in order to allow authorised traffic over the canal. Part of the Western Command Stop Line No 6.
