Co-op, Bowdon Vale
This ornate canopy, dated 1909, seems very out of place on a Co-op store. The reason is that the building was originally built as an infants school on land given by the Stamford family. The foundation stone, laid by the Countess of Stamford, can be seen at the bottom [http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5329959].
