Salford

Salford stands beside the River Irwell in England, where the waterway forms part of Greater Manchester’s closely connected urban core. Once a major industrial town, it retains a strong link to its working past through Salford Quays, the former dockland on the Manchester Ship Canal. The area has been remade as a cultural and media district, home to MediaCityUK and The Lowry, whose galleries and theatres honour the work of painter L. S. Lowry. Victorian mills, canalside routes and modern waterfront buildings show the city’s changing character. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of Salford and Greater Manchester.
