Bredbury and Romiley was an administrative district in Cheshire, England. It had its origins in a local government district created in 1865 covering the township of Bredbury. The district was enlarged in 1880 to take in Romiley, when it was renamed Bredbury and Romiley. Local government districts were reconstituted as urban districts in 1894. Compstall was absorbed into the district in 1936. Bredbury and Romiley Urban District was abolished in 1974, with the area becoming part of the new Metropolitan Borough of Stockport in Greater Manchester.
