Flood risk management is one area where this has been particularly true, but the same ideas could theoretically be applied to other potential climate induced impacts in urban areas such as subsidence, sewer collapse and land movement. Greater Manchester, as the world’s first industrial city, provides an ideal case study of how such events have affected the urban infrastructure in the past. This paper reviews some of the evidence which can be gleaned from past events and also shows how the realisation of some climate-related risks in heavy modified urban environments can only be fully understood through a consideration of sub-surface as well as surface characteristics. Key words flood, subsidence, risk assessment, Greater Manchester Introduction element which is exposed. It follows, therefore, that unless Urban areas have always been prone to climate-related risks there is a connection between all three risk components, as a result of their ability to modify physical processes such there can be no risk.

  • Boddingtons Bitter Had Been Produced As Ttthis Was Written
    BODDINGTONS BREWERY DOUBLE GOLD FOR ROBBIES FESTIVAL GLORY FOR LOCAL 1778 - 2005 FAMILY BREWER STOCKPORT’S family brewer, Frederic Robinson Ltd, is basking in glory after Old Tom won two top awards at CAMRA’s National Winter Ales Festival, held at Man- RR.II.PP. chester’s New Century Hall last month. The legendary 8.5 per cent alcohol-by-volume strong ale, which has been brewed continu- ously since 1899, not only won the barley wine category but then went on to win the overall title of ‘Supreme Champion Winter Beer of Britain’ by a panel of tasters including beer writers, brewing industry professionals and officials from CAMRA, the Campaign for Real Ale. The competition was split into three categories, stout and porter, old ales and strong milds, and barley wines. The judging panel then had to narrow down the selection to just two beers from each category before selecting the supreme champion. At the announcement, Steve Prescott, Or- ganiser of the National Winter Ales Festival congratulated Robinson’s on their victory. He said, “Old Tom is no stranger to awards. It’s a fabulously rich beer and thoroughly deserves the top prize.” BODDIES SHUTS AT LAST HE LAST BREW of Boddingtons Bitter had been produced as TTthis was written. The historic Strangeways Brewery will now close despite a valiant, but ultimately doomed, campaign to save it by unions, local press, the City Council and CAMRA. Mike Benner, Chief Executive of CAMRA said, “Beer has been brewed at Strangeways since before the French Revolution and global owners InBev have lost their heads if they think the people of Manchester will treat Boddingtons brewed in Lancashire and Wales with the same fondness.
