Manure in Stockport

Hello!
Does anyone know a place to get free (or cheap) manure in the Stockport area? Preferably rotted, but maybe I'm asking too much!
Thanks for your help

    Not sure about whether it's rotted, but you used to be able to get free manure from the stables in Marple, the ones that are on the back road between Marple and High Lane. I've not lived there for a few years so I'm not sure if they're still there, but if you follow the road past the Ridge College as if you're heading to Disley (Ridge Road?) the stables are there ... I think they're called Hill Top or something like that.
