Geography

Cheadle Bulkeley covered part of the rural area that formed modern-day Cheadle and Cheadle Hulme. [2]

The 1846 tithe map shows that Cheadle Bulkeley was intertwined with Cheadle Moseley township, an unusual situation in Cheshire. The 1870s Ordnance Survey map shows that the townships each had many detached portions, several enclosed within the other. (Cheadle Moseley had 8 detached portions, and Cheadle Bulkeley had 35 detached portions.)

Together, the two townships were bordered to the west by Stockport Etchells, to the north by Heaton Norris, to the east by Bramhall and Stockport and to the south by Handforth.

History

Cheadle Bulkeley existed as a township from the Middle Ages,, [3] in 1866 Cheadle Bulkeley became a separate civil parish, [4] on 29 September 1879 it was merged with Cheadle Moseley to form Cheadle civil parish. [5]

In 1894, Cheadle and Stockport Etchells civil parishes merged to form the parish and Urban District of Cheadle and Gatley, finally becoming part of the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport in 1974. [6]
