At the border of the ward with Brinnington & Central lies Stockport Station, formerly known as Edgeley Station. The ward also contains Stockport Academy, formerly Avondale High School.
Matt Wynne was elected as a Labour candidate for the 2019 election. However on 6 October 2022 he quit the Labour party after they deemed him unfit to stand for the 2023 election. He is currently an independent councillor.
On 17 April 2018, Stockport Council published a notice to confirm that due to the death of the Conservative candidate Maureen Baldwin-Moore the scheduled election for this ward would no longer take place on 3 May 2018, and that a new poll would take place on 24 May 2018. Under the Electoral Administration Act, the Conservatives were allowed to select a replacement candidate, but new nominations by other parties were not permitted.
