Longridge and Shaw Heath are great places to live. Situated to the east of Knutsford town centre, Longridge is a neighbourhood of 350 homes including young families and older people. A quiet residential community, Longridge is relatively close to neighbouring Knutsford, although public transport links are poor which can cause issues for local residents.
Great Places owns and manages most of the homes on Longridge and is committed to long-term investment in the neighbourhood, including the Welcome Café and community centre, which delivers a wide range of activities and opportunities for local people.
