Stockport has released a 219-page spatial strategy for the borough, which includes 26 Green Belt sites.

The plan is now available for reading ahead of a consultation that will begin in the coming weeks.

Planners across the region have got a busy weekend of reading ahead of them.

The design of the plan has been described as "not exactly groundbreaking" by some, but others have expressed optimism about the proposals.

The local plan has been the subject of much debate since the council withdrew from the spatial plan for Greater Manchester.
