Nothing concrete but..........
As hubby and I were returning to Marple from New Mills 4.30ish there was a police vehicle pulled up outside the Cheshire, facing the wrong way, with lights flashing.
Then as we dropped down through Marple three more police cars came hurtling up, lights flashing, from the Stockport direction.
As I went out again, at 7pm ish there were still two police cars parked outside the Cheshire.
Couldn't see any police cars at 11.15pm, on my return.
