Heaton Chapel railway station serves the Heaton Chapel and Heaton Moor districts of Stockport, Greater Manchester, England. It is south of Manchester Piccadilly towards Stockport. It opened as Heaton Chapel & Heaton Moor in 1852 by the London and North Western Railway (LNWR). It was renamed Heaton Chapel by British Rail on 6 May 1974.
Facilities The station has a ticket office; when the ticket office is closed access to the Manchester-bound platform is only possible via a ramp from Tatton Road South.
In May 2016, the roof collapsed onto the stairs of the Manchester-bound platform. This resulted in the stairs being closed on both platforms, leaving access only via long ramps to the platforms. The roof has now been repaired and reinstated.
