Every month, Macclesfield Nub News rounds-up the ten most read news stories of each month. Just in case you missed them.

As we are a one man show, we could not produce as many articles as we'd have liked to this month with absences and the death of the Queen, so we greatly appreciate your support.

So please grab a cuppa, and enjoy the ten most popular news articles in Macclesfield last month.

No 8 Meet with the real people and cast that inspired Macclesfield play 'Bysmal Boys

The longest article on the list, but that certainly didn't put people off watching.

'Bysmal Boys is an award-winning play that is set and was written in Macclesfield.

No 3 Macclesfield chefs shine at new Cheshire pub by minds behind The Picturedrome

This piece profiled a pub in Nantwich which was revitalised thanks to the same team that opened The Picturedrome in Macclesfield.

Three Macclesfield chefs will work at the pub, and we spoke with one of them.

No 2 New Macclesfield bar wants to bring footfall to west of Chestergate 

Serving Iberian-twinged brunch and a pilsner named after the Macclesfield street it resides on, new bar Suburban Green has big plans for our town.

Positioned next to a new boutique hotel in Macclesfield, the business is an expansion of a successful site in Wilmslow.

The bar wants to bring more people to a side of town which doesn't have much nightlife.

RIP Ma'am.
