Irlam Community Centre
Small building at junction Ferryhill Road & Locklands Lane. I'm sure lots of activities take place here, but Salford doesn't seem to publicise them very effectively: http://services.salford.gov.uk/servicedirectory/service.aspx?ServiceID=1352

The Parish Church of St John the Baptist. Irlam
St John's is a Church of England Parish Church on Liverpool Road, in Irlam. It was consecrated on 11 July 1866 when Irlam village was mainly a farming community. This is reflected in the plain design of the church building which looks like a typical “country” church.

During the construction of the Manchester Ship Canal several sections of the River Irwell (which was canalised between Manchester and the point where it joined the Mersey near here) remained after its course was straightened. This is a picture of one of these sections, known locally as The Old River. Taken on a cold January day with ice on the surface.
