About

Ardwick is a largely residential district directly southeast of Manchester city centre. Its streets are dominated by Victorian terraced housing, with some newer apartment developments appearing in recent years. The area functions as a practical gateway between the city centre and neighbourhoods further out like Longsight and Levenshulme.

A notable local landmark is the Ardwick Green conservation area, featuring Georgian townhouses that hint at the area's earlier, more affluent history. The district is also home to the large Ardwick retail park, providing big-box stores for local shoppers. The Manchester College's City Campus North is a significant presence, bringing student activity to the area.
