Other sites on the list include a former POW camp on Charcoal Road in Dunham and the Manchester Carriage and Tramway Company’s Depot.

Among others included are the Quaker Meeting House and the Burial Ground where George Bradshaw, who developed the first widely used railway timetable guide, is buried.

Raglan House, the home of John Brogden, who built the Manchester to Altrincham Railway, is also there.

The list includes so-called “non-designated cultural monuments” in nature conservation areas and is intended to influence future decisions on planning applications.

Patel said a final consultation would be held before the list was fully adopted.

“The benefits of such listing are significant and will have a positive impact on our borough’s streetscape, securing attractive and distinctive aspects of our local heritage and built environment,” she said.
