Design of ‘landmark’ centre with roof shaped like an aircraft wing is a ‘missed opportunity’
Planners have given the go ahead for a ‘landmark’ district centre with a roof shaped like an aircraft wing - but believe the design is a ‘missed opportunity’. The ‘mixed use hub’ will serve the new Woodford Garden Village - an emerging 950-home development south of Stockport - with potential services including shops, cafes and health facilities.

Despite his ‘frustrations’- including that none of the apartments will be affordable - Coun Bagnall admitted there were no planning grounds for refusing the application. Councillors Suzanne Wyatt and Coun Steve Gribbon, who chaired the meeting, agreed that the scheme could have been ‘done better’ - although both liked the roof and its nod to the site’s aerodrome past.
