About this Event
Join me for a lively walk through Manchester's industrial past where an obscure village became the engine room that created our modern world. This wasn't a city built by kings, but by workers whose ideas and graft reshaped society.
We'll trace that transformation passing the city's oldest building, the site of the world's first factory in NOMA, the towering mills of Ancoats, and overlooked remains still hiding in plain sight in the Northern Quarter.
What you'll experience:
• 5-star rated walking tour
• Stories from 45 years of journalism (30 with BBC)
• The hidden history that changed everything
• Why Manchester's innovations matter today
