Blackley Forest, Manchester
The area was woodland since the Norman Conquest in 1066, home to wild boar and deer, and visited by eagles. The present forest was planted by Manchester Corporation and local residents beginning in 1953 and is Manchester’s first true community forest. Before 1953 the land had been grazed and tree cover was very limited. The re-planting commemorated the Queen’s coronation and also the local people who gave their lives in the Second World War.
The Forest stretches from Victoria Avenue through to Blackley New Road, and there is an adjoining meadow and fishing lake. This view was taken from the Victoria Avenue entrance looking along the path which leads in among the trees.
