Park View Community School, 31 Varley Street, Miles Platting, Manchester
A large amount of regeneration has gone on in the Miles Platting area, although currently there are still many large vacant sites, where the previous buildings have been demolished. This school, which opened in September 2007 at other premises, relocated to this new building in September 2010. It is on the corner of Varley Street and Holland Street. The school caters for children between the ages of 3 and 11. In the background can be seen part of the huge Victoria Mill, a former cotton mill.

Victoria Mill, Miles Platting
Another view of this very impressive cotton mill seen in a ruinous state. Built 1867 and 1875 and now (predictably) converted to flats.
