Housing development built by Manchester Corporation in the early 1960s, in recent years the area has undergone large scale improvements. The tower block to the right is uninhabited and earmarked for demolition, the large building in the middle of the photograph is the Ken Ward Sports Centre surrounded by its sports pitches. Pinfold Junior School is just behind the sports centre.
