Chapel St

Editorial for Chapel St

Chapel St

The Chapel Street Corridor stretches from Salford University along the A6 to Manchester, including the areas of Islington, Trinity & Greengate.

Key to the regeneration of the area will be to attract economic growth and to create a balanced mix of housing type and tenure with the aim of repopulating and making the area more sustainable.

With the formation of Central Salford Urban Regeneration Company (URC) which was given Government approval on February 1st 2005, a new draft Vision and Regeneration framework has been developed with a team of internationally acclaimed regeneration experts and architects. The Chapel Street area will be a priority for the URC and we will ensure that our work in the area will support and compliment the URC framework.

The URC is an independent company that has brought together the city council, the North West Regional Development Agency and English Partnerships who, with existing regeneration partnerships and the private sector, will drive the renewal. A partnership with the English Cities Fund has been created to progress the regeneration of the area.

For more information on the framework visit the Central Salford URCExternal site website.

Archaeology with the community!

Hand with treasure

Archaeology with the community!
There is a new Research Centre for Applied Archaeology at the University of Salford (but based in the CUBE building on Portland Street in Manchester).

The work of the Centre includes involving people from local communities, helping them to learn more about the history of their locality, and the chance to be trained in archaeological techniques. This might also be an interesting way to encourage both physical activity and learning!

If any local community group or school wants to know more, or become involved in digging up the past, they should contact:

Mike Nevell (Head of Archaeology) m.d.nevell@salford.ac.uk or Brian Grimsditch (Community Archaeologist) b.grimsditch@salford.ac.uk
