We took a tour inside Stockport Pyramid to see what it's like now

In the world of pyramids, Greater Manchester might not be the place you picture. But Mancs know that Stockport is home to a special pyramid of its own.
Jokingly dubbed the 'eighth wonder of the world', the Stockport Pyramid has been the centre of rumours, stories, and speculation since it was built in the late eighties. Originally part of the 'Valley of the Kings' project which aimed to see five pyramids built along the River Mersey, it was the only one that was ever constructed.
Though thousands drive past the glass structure everyday on the M60, most will have never been inside. The building lay dormant before the Co-op bank opted to base their head office there in 1995. Now, abandoned since 2018, the building stands empty - a mysterious ziggurat with a magnetic allure.
Plans for the pyramid's future are almost in place, and have been met with excitement from across the North West. The owners of award-winning restaurant chain Royal Nawaab have confirmed talks for the restaurant's takeover are close to completion, meaning the building's empty days are numbered.
