Moor Magazine

Moor Magazine Your ultimate guide on what's new, improved, brilliant and booming in the Four Heatons right now. We hope you agree!

Moor Magazine was initially launched in 2010, when two Heatonians with big ideas put their heads together. They created a publication that represented the pride, potential and diversity that The Four Heatons are all about. With hundreds of small businesses both new and old in the area, the concept was to encourage locals to shop on their doorstep and support these fabulous enterprises, instead of

trekking over to large shopping centres (or online). With a focus on locally sourced goods, services and skills, the magazine has helped businesses boom, as well as reconnecting a sense of community in an area with a thirst for local news. Our team have now grown to a powerful combination of writers, creatives and commercial agents. We would like to thank the several volunteers who provide stories and photography as well as those local businesses who've shown such loyalty over the years. You've all helped us achieve a quality of product that is above and beyond any local magazine.

September marks the 175th anniversary of the building of St. John the Baptist Church in Heaton Mersey. The church will be open for the Heritage Open Weekend in September. It is hoped that there will be a display of photographs and memorabilia from the church's history along with wedding dresses and christening gowns. If you have anything you’d like to contribution to the display, please contact the vicar, on [email protected]
The church will be open 11- 3 on Saturday 13th and 1- 4 on Sunday 14th September for the Heritage Open Weekend. People are most welcome to come along.
If you'd like to know more about the history of the church, in our Sept/Oct editions of MOOR, we've got a feature by Phil Page all about it.

This week's Flashback looks like it should be easy.....but we're not so sure you'll get it. We have shown it to you before, (about five years ago!), so if you remember it from then, we politely request that you hold back for a bit on your answer and let everyone guess first. The picture was taken in the 1930s.
As always, the answer will be posted on Saturday morning.
