2-38 Regent Square, Salford
The square is the focal point of the New Barracks Estate, Salford's first foray into municipal housing. Built, on the site of an infantry barracks, by Henry Lord who won a competition in 1899. The housing is pleasantly varied, though most of the original thirty-two shops have gone.

There is a light that never goes out!
The light above the fanlight of possibly one of the more famous doorways in British contemporary music is not switched on today, though.

Club, St Ignatius Way, Salford
Salford Lads' Club, by Henry Lord, 1904. It has a very well preserved interior. The listing states that it was "designed to provide sporting, recreational and performance facilities, and is thought to be the most complete example of this rare form of social provision to survive in England". Paid for by J.G. and W.G. Groves for the residents of the city's first municipal housing estate. Grade II listed.
Still a youth club, probably best known for featuring on an album cover of the Smiths.
