The light shining off the bus roofs makes these a little harder to identify but the width of the white side bands gives it away.
On the right hand side, where the upper and lower windows are surrounded by a white band, is a bus from Stockport Corporation Transport Department. To its left, identified by the lover windows NOT being framed in white, is a Manchester Corporation Transport Department bus.
Both of the buses may be on the Stockport-Manchester 92 route (later 192) - this road marks the boundary between Stockport and Manchester. Some MCTD buses carried on a bit farther to Heaton Chapel (92x).
The very wide road is no longer a bus terminus, the shelters in the middle (built for tram use) have been removed.
The corner building to the right of the buses was used as a "transport office" by MCTD - the building remains but repurposed.
Originally built as a tram car terminus in the 1920s it converted to a bus terminus in 1949. '
