Re: How many other things are in Marple?

[royal_marple]

Phone boxes - none
Banks - none, but there are branches of Building Societies (Nationwide and Vernon)
Cash points - at ASDA, Texaco Garage, new co-op, old NatWest, ...
Public Toilets - well, there are plenty of bushes!
Car parks - actually, there are quite a lot

We could do with a bicycle shop ... Wheels?

There is a phone box opposite Marple Medical Practice not sure if it works though.

Yes I did mean Pete at Pedal Power. He is excellent.

[andrewbowden]

We have a great cycle shop/cycle service centre locally at Petes Pedals

You mean Pete at Pedal Power?  Have used Pete before and really liked him.  Although he's clearly too popular as I need to get my son's bike repaired and he's booked up all through May!

Probably more speed humps in Marple than the combined total of pubs in Marple, Stockport and half of Manchester

How many speed humps/cushions are there in Marple?

There is a bike shop at the goyt, depending on your level of fitness you might need a working bike to get up there tho.

How many banks in Marple is easy to answer and doesn't even need to worry about defining what "Marple" is.  Because for every definition the answer is the same. None.

Two building societies though.
