The area is actually called Lancashire Hill.

All the flats were clad at some stage in the 1990's and are now green and white. Stockport council have declared the cladding system is not similar to the one used at Grenfell.

The flats are very similar to those at Victoria Park, a few miles away in Macclesfield (demolished 2000)
