1-3 Domett Street, Manchester
The revised Buildings of England volume covering Manchester remarks that "nothing is left to tell of the village [Blackley] except a couple of pubs and a small mill on the corner of Domett Street." Assuming this to be the aforementioned mill, yet another trace has now gone because it was pulled down some time in 2021-22. No great architectural loss, but it's a pity that no imaginative way was found of incorporating it into the housing development which will no doubt replace it. (Ironically something that has been achieved in central Manchester and other city centres.)

The site of the NatWest Bank at 76 Old Market Street
There used to be a bit of a village feel here, but there is much new housing development with little other facilities in the immediate area.

St Peter's Church Blackley
The west and south faces of St Peter's Church, Blackley.
The present St Peter’s Church was opened in 1844 and enlarged in 1880, although there have been at least two previous churches on the site dating back to 1547 (or possibly even earlier) The boxed pews inside the church were taken from the 1736 building, but it is possible that they may be 16th century in origin.
There are two principal entrances to the Church, the main one on the western side of the tower and the other one on the south side of the nave, facing Old Market Street and allowing easy access to the stairs leading up to the tower. The tower still has the old original bells in position. The tower also houses the four-face village clock.
The church is a Grade II Listed Building
http://www.stpeter-blackley.org.uk The church web site has a detailed leaflet about the history and architecture of the church.
