Heaton Moor is a sought-after suburb of Stockport, known for its village atmosphere along Heaton Moor Road and its high concentration of well-preserved Victorian and Edwardian properties. The housing along Heaton Moor Road and the surrounding streets is predominantly late Victorian and Edwardian terraced and semi-detached, with some larger detached properties on the wider residential roads. Heaton Moor has one of the highest concentrations of Victorian housing anywhere in Stockport — properties that are characterful, well-loved and increasingly being adapted with stairlift solutions to help their long-term residents remain in them.
