About

Hulme is located directly south of Manchester city centre, bordered by the River Medlock and the Mancunian Way. The area is primarily residential, characterised by a mix of Victorian terraces and larger post-war housing developments. Its street grid follows the layout of the older Crescents, a notable 1960s housing scheme that has since been redeveloped. The area includes several parks and green spaces, such as Hulme Park and the community garden plots along Princess Road.

The ward is home to the Zion Arts Centre, a local cultural hub housed in a former church. Hulme Arch, a distinctive steel footbridge, connects the area to the neighbouring university campuses. Local commerce is focused along Stretford Road and the indoor stalls of Hulme Market. The presence of the Birley Fields campus places a significant student population within the community, influencing its everyday rhythm.
