Tala Homes draws up plans for 106 Stockport apartments
A plot off Hopes Carr, just outside the town centre, could be redeveloped into homes under proposals from the Manchester-based firm.
Tala Homes has submitted a planning application to Stockport Council requesting permission to build an apartment block comprising 106 homes on the site of the former Hopes Carr silk mill, which was demolished more than a decade ago.
The scheme, rising to seven storeys, would comprise 38 one-bedroom apartments and 68 with two. In addition, the scheme proposes the creation of a park around Hempshaw Brook, which runs roughly parallel to Hopes Carr.
Tala is in talks with Stockport Homes Group about the ongoing management of the properties post-completion.
Chase Architecture is leading on design and Bramhall Town Planning is advising on planning matters.

Two blocks on the corner of Hopes Carr and Wellington Street next to Tala’s site were completed by Seddon in 2013.

This could be very good for brook, as long as the park is wildlife friendly – not just an expanse of mown grass.
