Author Description

In April 2020, during the Covid-19 lockdown, Heidi Alexander discovered by chance some 35mm film negatives from weekend visits to Stockport Market in Greater Manchester, in 1976 and 1977, mainly forgotten for over four decades. "This Stockport doesn't exist anymore, and yet here it is, existing beautifully, standing up for itself, with plenty to say, sowing the seeds of tomorrow, in spite of everything." - Paul Morley. "I remember well the charm of Stockport Market from when I was a student at Manchester Polytechnic in the early 70s. Heidi has captured that time and period very well in this book." - Martin Parr
