Newest Review: ... there is NOTHING to do for young people. At all. Basically, if you live in Macclesfield and you don't have a car, then you may as well accept your fate as a hermit, because there really is no hope for you, unless you can befriend someone with a car.

Macclesfield used to be a beautiful town, of old mills, rolling hills and Sunday markets. All of a sudden it seemed to take a turn for the worse and went steadily downhill, with high rise flats, grafitti and scallies popping up on every corner. This is the town I was born in and I am glad to say that it looks as though things are on the up. Although Macclesfield (or Macc as it is known to locals) council is probably the most useless one in the whole of the world, things are eventually changing and the town is beginning to look like a nice place to live once more.
