About

Little Hulton is a residential ward in the western part of Salford, bordering the city of Bolton. The area is characterised by a mix of post-war and more recent housing developments, with significant green spaces like the Cutacre Country Park and the Manchester, Bolton & Bury Canal running along its eastern edge. Local amenities are concentrated along main routes like Manchester Road, serving the community's daily needs.

The landscape is marked by the prominent, tree-lined spoil heap known locally as the 'Little Hulton Tip', a reclaimed landmark visible across the area. Historically a coal mining district, its past is reflected in street names and community memory. The ward functions with a strong local identity, centred around its schools, community centres, and the open recreational areas that provide a contrast to the urban housing.
