Welcome to Stockport Daily Photo

Sign at the eastern entrance to Stockport station. A blue plaque on the wall states that in June, July and August 1940 Stockport welcomed over 1200 evacuees from the Channel Islands. The children were cared for by local families until the islands were liberated in May 1945.


My own photos of the Channel Islands can be seen on Jersey Photos - One a Day.

A contribution to Blue Monday.
