About

Piccadilly sits at the eastern edge of Manchester city centre around Manchester Piccadilly station and Piccadilly Gardens. The station is the city's main rail hub with national services and the local Metrolink tram interchange runs through the Gardens, linking lines across the city. Streets around London Road host a mix of retail, offices and short-stay accommodation, while pedestrian routes connect directly to the city centre. Everyday activity is shaped by arrivals and departures at the station and the steady movement of trams and buses.

Ancoats lies just northeast of Piccadilly, built around a network of canals and the mills that powered the 19th-century cotton trade. Great Ancoats Street crosses the area and the Rochdale Canal runs through New Islington, where a small marina sits beside rows of converted mill buildings. Many former spinning mills retain brick façades, tall windows and cast-iron columns; several have been adapted for housing, workshops and restaurants. Local streets include food venues, independent workshops and community spaces that reflect the area's industrial layout.
