About

Old Trafford ward is situated in the borough of Trafford, directly south of Manchester city centre. It is primarily a residential district with a mix of Victorian terraced housing and more modern apartment developments. The area is defined by several major roads, including Chester Road and Warwick Road, which provide key transport links. White City Retail Park serves as a significant local commercial hub. The ward's proximity to the University of Manchester and Manchester Metropolitan University influences its demographic, contributing to a substantial student population.

The area is globally synonymous with Manchester United Football Club, whose Old Trafford stadium is a dominant landmark on the northern boundary. Beyond the stadium, the ward includes the Wharfside business park and the Imperial War Museum North, located at the Quays waterfront. Local green spaces are limited but include the recreational grounds near St. John's Church. The Metrolink tram line runs through the area, connecting it directly to the city centre and Salford Quays.
