Roadworks at White City
Chester Road is affected by roadworks. In the background and looking somewhat incongruous is the Grade II listed https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1067874 Entrance portal and lodges to former White City greyhound track built in 1828 originally as the entrance to the Botanic Gardens. In 1907 the gardens were transformed into an amusement park which lasted until 1928. In 1930 the site became a greyhound track and it was also used as a speedway track. In 1953 an athletics track was created, In the 1970s it was used for stock car racing. The stadium closed in 1982 and was demolished to make way for the retail park that now occupies the site. http://manchesterhistory.net/manchester/gone/whitecity.html

Charlton House, Chester Road, Stretford
One of a cluster of substantial post-war office blocks in the Old Trafford area, perhaps part of a drive to attract business in the face of ailing industry. There is a local station, and the nearby A56 runs, in one direction, to what was the Stretford by-pass or M62 when it opened in 1960 (now the M60), and, in the other direction, to central Manchester.
This one has a chunky stair tower and a slab resting on pilotis.
