Shops at the corner of Ashley Street and Liverpool Street in Seedley, Salford.

These houses built c.1900 are evidence of the prosperity enjoyed by the people of Salford following the opening of the Manchester Ship Canal which is a short walk from here.

Located on the corner of Eccles New Road and Kirkham Street, the animal hospital is operated by the Tameside & Glossop branch of the RSPCA, which is a registered charity in its own right. The hospital provides an assisted veterinary treatment scheme to people living in the Tameside area, who are in receipt of means-tested benefits. It is located near the site of an old RSPCA animal clinic.

A street typical of the type surrounding "Chimney Pots Park" (Langworthy Park). Many of the houses in this area lie empty, awaiting redevelopment. Taken from SJ807987.

Here is a view looking down Liverpool Street in Langworthy, a district of central Salford. Langworthy Park is located behind the wall across the road. As can be seen from the hedges behind the rails, ground level in the park is roughly at the top of the walls seen here. The park is elevated above the surrounding streets and is known locally as "Chimney Pots Park" for the good rooftop views it provides (very "Coronation Street" type views). The housing stock in the vicinity is mostly Victorian terraced housing, much of which is being demolished.

Located on the corner of Eccles New Road and Derby Road, this store is open 7 days a week, and seems to sell a large variety of items. It is also an off-licence. The building appears fairly new, and is no doubt part of the huge redevelopment that has taken place in this area. Parked by the side of the shop is a Manchester Evening News poster. Its headline is "Corrie star's husband accused of attack".
