A short walk from Stockport train station brings into view the red brick terraces of Edgeley. It's the home of Stockport County football club and is an area known for its proud and tight-knit community.
But locals say the area has suffered years of neglect, with independent councillors - from the Edgeley Community Association - saying it needs millions in investment to fulfil its potential.
Calls for a 'fundamental upgrade' to the high street have been made, including improved public spaces to fit tables and chairs on the pavements, more greenery, and new crossing points for shoppers navigating the roads.
And they are looking to Manchester areas which have been earmarked for investment - like Withington and Moston - for inspiration.

Last year, £3 million of government funding was awarded to make improvements to Moston Lane and Withington high street.
The plan involves a new public square and outdoor seating in Withington, with Moston set to get improvements to green areas at Peace Gardens and Moston Green, and improved pedestrian crossings.
It's part of a scheme to create better public spaces and kickstart regeneration in the areas.
