Salford info
Salford (population: 220,000)
is a city in Greater Manchester, in North West
England, traditionally part of south east Lancashire.
This city, which is close to the north side of
Manchester, is well known for artist L. S. Lowry.
It is the main settlement in the City of Salford,
and gave its name to the ancient hundred of Salford,
or Salfordshire. Salford University is one of
4 universities in Greater Manchester and has approximately
19,000 students. Salford was one of the UK's first
industrial cities and gained status at the start
of the industrial revolution. The name of Salford
came from Anglo-Saxon Sealhford = "sallow-tree
ford", in reference to the willow trees that
grow alongside the banks of the river Irwell that
runs through the city.
About Manchester
Manchester is
a city in the north-west of England.
The metropolitan borough of Manchester, with a
population of 422,302, lies at the heart of a
large conurbation called Greater Manchester,
with a population of 2,513,468.
Greater Manchester is also a
metropolitan county in England
established in 1974 which covers an area roughly
encompassing the conurbation of Manchester. It
is situated in North West England. It has borders
with the ceremonial counties of Cheshire (inc.
Warrington), Derbyshire, West Yorkshire, Lancashire
(inc. Blackburn with Darwen) and Merseyside. As
well as Manchester, the county includes major
centres such as Salford,
Bury, Bolton,
Stockport and Wigan.
Greater Manchester is not entirely built-up. Although
Manchester forms a conurbation along with Salford,
Trafford and Stockport,
other boroughs, such as Wigan
and Bury are clearly separate.
Towns in the
Manchester urban area include Salford,
Sale, Altrincham,
Cheadle, Stockport,
Ashton-under-Lyne,
and Oldham, Bury,
Rochdale, Stockport
and Stretford. Places
like Trafford and
Salford can be considered
part of the Manchester urban area in a way that
Wigan or Bolton
are not.
The term "Manchester" is often used
to refer to the entire conurbation, much as "London"
is usually used to mean Greater London, but many
of the constituent parts of Greater Manchester,
such as Salford, Wigan and Bolton, also have separate
identities. People from Manchester are called
Mancunians.
