'It feels like a corporate giant bullying the community': Bitter housing row escalates as firm ramps up security on land
A bitter housing row has escalated after a firm ramped up security and threatend to fence off land following what it calls ‘misleading statements’ at a recent council meeting. MAN Energy Solutions' plans to build 200 homes on Mirrlees Fields, behind its Stockport HQ, in Hazel Grove.

The friends group believe that securing 80pc of the land for future generations is the best deal residents are going to get - and support the plans.
However the Protect Mirrlees Fields Group takes a very different tack, and members are angry at MAN over what they see as a heavy handed response. Campaigner Elaine Leonard said: “We are very saddened and disappointed by the erection of the fences and security and it feels like the bullying behaviour of a corporate giant against the community of Woodsmoor because we don’t agree with development of the field.
