About Salford
- Salford Quays was once Manchester Docks — the biggest dock system in the world at its 1930s peak, closed in 1982 and reborn as the media and culture quarter that now houses the BBC, ITV and the Lowry.
- L. S. Lowry painted Salford's industrial streets and matchday crowds — the Lowry gallery on the Quays holds the biggest public collection of his work.
- The Crescent is where the term 'shaftesbury' of Salford University began — the university grew from the Royal Technical Institute of 1896, the first of its kind.
