About

Ancoats & Beswick sits on the eastern edge of Manchester city centre. The area is defined by its industrial past, with many former textile mills and warehouses now repurposed for modern residential and commercial use. The Rochdale Canal runs through the district, providing a linear waterway feature. Streets are a mix of converted red-brick buildings and newer apartment developments, creating a varied architectural streetscape.

The area includes the historic Ancoats conservation area, often cited as the world's first industrial suburb. Cutting Mills Green offers a local park space amidst the urban fabric. Daily life is centred around the redeveloped New Islington Marina and the independent businesses located in the old mill buildings. The Etihad Stadium, home to Manchester City FC, is a major landmark within the Beswick portion of the ward.
