|
| Life
in the Golden Triangle of Wilmslow, Prestbury and Alderley Edge |
| With claims of more Champagne flowing
in Alderley Edge,
more Aston
Martin's bought from Stratstone's
of Wilmslow and more Millionaires per
square mile in Prestbury, than
anywhere else in the country, what more
is needed to illustrate the levels of opulence that can be witnessed
here on every street corner. It was no coincidence that the Beckham's
chose to live in this area and that MTV had
a TV Series 'Living on the Edge,' showing the privileged
offspring who try and convince the rest of us that they are just normal
teenagers with genuine feelings and growing-up pains. Hopefully, Whatsin-Wilmslow can
help the remainder of us discover and enjoy the true rewards of living
in such a privilged area of the country. |
