Some unforgettable scenes here!

Great days, now full or immigration ppl who rob you blind, breaks my ❤

Brassic brought me here!

''Tough times''?, were they really, this was a way of life, it is how all lives were, whatever happened we waded through it. I used to go with my grandmother to the roads where the wood blocks were being taken up to make roads as they are today, as a boy l never thought it was hard but it could have been. Why l do not know is because no one complained.

When was the arena area built?

😊they played similar music at the blue note nearby

hey , at 16:17 in this video ua-cam.com/video/Vd3KjxFkVQk/v-deo.html , is this the same place? thank you.

Music just about ruined it fro me.

I got a leather bike jacket from there as I was into rock music, kept it for many years.

I worked there when it was a university in 1997

The city council thought putting up a concrete wall reminiscent of something out of Ceaucescu’s communist Bucharest at its most grim would be a very good thing for Mancunians to enjoy instead.

What makes me laugh is when you get people today moaning about new houses being cardboard boxes, not built as good as the old houses. Okay…so old houses were new once, and in a lot of cases were turning to slums and not fit for living in after a few decades and a newer load of victorian houses were built. I know a street in Padiham, Lancs where that happened. Nice old houses but they were the second lot to be built in place of the previous terraces. Those in this video look old and run down, but of course they were built far better in those days. Yes, I can see that as they were torn down. Some people havnt a clue. If todays new houses last as long then theres no difference.

Wow, in the past did the underground have tarmacadamed roads with cars on them and also access to the sky?

There is no apostrophe in 1960s

I think Bradford pit was further along on the opposite side, the gas works was where City’s ground now stands. I know because I went to Openshaw Tech high school and the 53 bus passed both these places. The gas works was amazing, from the top deck it looked like a tiny city laid out with roads etc. I think some scenes from the film “The Family Way” with Hywell Bennett and John Mills were filmed in the gas works.

Can you imagine someone who lived in 1936 going back to Manchester nowadays, they wouldn't know which way to turn

The city is a mess now. Those massive skyscrapers before you get to Deansgate look awful. No class, no character.

We never ever go to Manchester now. It's full of smack-rats! 🤮

I remember it well, At the bottom at the far back there was a stall that sold leather jackets

It looked a lovely course , such a shame it was closed , great nostalgia .

Why destroy nice areas and turn them into ugly places? It doesn't make sense

so it is Andale today? i even didnt know it!

What Hitler failed to destroy..

My Grandfather, Bob Wood a carpenter i think he was foreman on the Manchester Ice Palace,, fought for M. regiment Ypres Mesopotamia but he would not talk about it.

My uncle fought in WW1 in the Manchester Pals regiment Robert Lloyd Evans from Sale Cheshire,He was injured by shrapnel and remained in the uk training troops for the front.

looks like white privilege to me

My grandad was a coal man very strong and generous

My granmother loved racing ( gambling !) and never missed a meet at Manchester races . She died in 1958 . Great lady. I keep watching this hoping to see her .😢

and some people think it’s changed for the worst 😶

beautiful pub the folky bred some characters clayton

People dont believe me when i say there's a Bradford in Manchester and there was a coillery

1 ton of coal in 1960's was 2 shillings and 6 pence into days money that would be 12.5 pence

In the 1950s my parents used to run Albert’s Transport Cafe on Lower Moss Lane & my mother had the draper’s shop next door. I seem to remember that they were numbers 122 & 124. The properties were compulsory purchased & we moved to Old Trafford.

It's a disaster that it is not with us now. Imagine if it was. It would be priceless.

What was there just before they built the stadium? I remember late 90s being on the top deck of the bus going towards Ashton and there were black boarded walls up along there, so high couldn't see over it even on the top deck..

Those hard working men and pit ponies must be turning in their graves that this area is home to Ciddy and their 115 FA charges.

That last picture shows it hasn't changed from the 50s and 60s, it's still a s _ _ _ hole.

That first shot is amazing! Where did you get it from?

I went to the Wheel but there were other clubs playing the same records and having the same or similar artists on.

My mother worked at bidells fish and Chip shop tib Street in the 60s

My family got moved from one Slum - Newton Heath - to Another - Hulme - Work That Out

I'm sure that with some thoughts to preservation, a development like Chimney Pot Park would have kept the character and social fabric of the area than levelling everything and 'modernising' it. Progress eh?

How lovely to see Piccadilly gardens like this … a bygone age … and a space of tranquility in the centre of the city. I sat there with my Mum and Gran in the 60’s as a boy. My Gran would buy me a Matchbox toy in Woolworths and we would go to Pauldens store and have a cup of tea and a cake in the café. Now it is a disgraceful trash can showing no thought behind the awful structures which inhabit the space. Very depressing.

Loved walking along there seeing all the animals, and into the joke shop! Great days.

Stolen from Ivor!!! In the late 70s and early 80s that was the best lads casual clothes shop ever!!! Not underground, but down the side next to Beatties scale model shop if I remember rightly. Funny a little further up that street was the main city centre post office where the human loafers used to happily cash their dole cheques and spend what they had on smart loafers at Ivor’s. The same buggers cursed Thatcher and the Tories but dressed better than me just standing in the dole queue signing on office in Aytoun Street 😂 and I was a penniless hard working teen at the old Farmhouse Kitchen restaurant chain at the back of Lewis’s in Piccadilly Gardens (next to Millionaire nightclub -once owned by George Best)

My great great uncle right there 🤍rip

They turned neighbourhood streets where everyone looked out for each other into forts like Fort Ardwick and Fort Beswick, which were like wild west towns

THE REAL CORONATION ST.

My Great Grandad was killed in Bradford pit in 1910, he was only 40 yrs old.
