[edit] Transport

The Manchester Metrolink tram network passes through the village; Timperley Metrolink station lies on the route between Manchester City Centre and Altrincham.[21]
[edit] Present day
Today Timperley is a suburban area extending from the A56 road in the west to the main Stockport Road roundabout on the A560 in the east. Much of the housing stock dates from the 1930s and later. Typically houses are substantially larger than the traditional "northern terraces". Older houses tend to be in the red brick cottage style of north Cheshire.
