About

Clifton lies on the northern edge of Salford, bordered by the Irwell Valley's green spaces. The area is primarily residential, characterised by post-war housing estates and older terraced streets. Its landscape is defined by the sloping terrain leading down to the river, offering views across the valley. Local amenities are focused along the main roads, serving the community's everyday needs.

A prominent local landmark is the chimney of the former Agecroft Colliery, a relic of the area's industrial past. The surrounding Clifton Country Park provides a large area of woodland and water, created from former mining works and the reservoir. This blend of residential streets with extensive reclaimed green space shapes the area's identity, separating it from the more urban centres nearby.
