Duchy and Pendlebury

The Duchy and Pendlebury Renewal Area consists of the land and buildings bordered by: the rear of Egmont Street to the east, the disused railway to the north, Broomhall Road and St John Street to the west and the rear of Johnson Street and Duchy Road to the south.

Progress to date includes:

* A series of Block Improvement/Environmental Schemes have already directly benefited 89 of the 254 properties (35%) in the Renewal Area.

* A introduction of an alleygating scheme with the support of local residents, which has directly benefited 87 properties

* The Duchy Clearance Area was declared in January 2005 and demolition has started on the 116 properties, (77% of which were found to be unfit for human habitation). Once cleared, this site will be re-used for private family housing.

Archaeology with the community!

Hand with treasure

Archaeology with the community!
There is a new Research Centre for Applied Archaeology at the University of Salford (but based in the CUBE building on Portland Street in Manchester).

The work of the Centre includes involving people from local communities, helping them to learn more about the history of their locality, and the chance to be trained in archaeological techniques. This might also be an interesting way to encourage both physical activity and learning!

If any local community group or school wants to know more, or become involved in digging up the past, they should contact:

Mike Nevell (Head of Archaeology) m.d.nevell@salford.ac.uk or Brian Grimsditch (Community Archaeologist) b.grimsditch@salford.ac.uk

Spoof Interview with Professor Clever Cloggs on the Credit Crunch

Image for Spoof Interview with Professor Clever Cloggs on the Credit Crunch

As part of the Community reporters programme we took a copy of the Manchester Evening News and used it to see if there were any articles that we could follow up with a telephone interview. We found an article about laughter and the Credit Crunch and how it was affecting us all. There were some very 'interesting' facts in there as well as a quote from a Professor. The real Professor in the Story was naturally far to busy to give us an interview even though we found his phone number on his website. So we had to phone up someone to do a fake one instead.
