  • Patterns of Poverty in Greater Manchester's Neighbourhoods
    Patterns of poverty in Greater Manchester’s neighbourhoods Analysis of small area poverty estimates for 2014 Inclusive Growth Analysis Unit, May 2017 Patterns of poverty in Greater Manchester’s neighbourhoods In April 2017 the Office for National Statistics published a set of model-based estimates of poverty for Middle Layer Super Output Areas in England and Wales in 2013/14. 1 These estimates can be used to assess differences in the proportion of households in poverty across small areas. This note outlines our initial analysis of the data for Greater Manchester. A short glossary note is included at the end, describing key terms. It should be noted that these are modelled estimates which are subject to wide confidence intervals. In Moss Side, for example, 25.8% of households were estimated to be in poverty, with a lower confidence limit of 18.5% and an upper limit of 34.6%. While the estimates offer insight into geographical patterns of disadvantage, detailed analysis of differences between specific neighbourhoods would not be appropriate. As a guide, the ONS estimates that only the 22% of MSOAs with the highest poverty rates are significantly different from the 22% in the lowest ranks.2 What is the scale of poverty at neighbourhood level in Greater Manchester? Figure 1: Poverty rates before and after housing costs across Greater Manchester 20143 BEFORE HOUSING COSTS AFTER HOUSING COSTS Across the 346 MSOAs in Greater Manchester the average (median) household poverty rate Before Housing Costs (BHC) was 16.1% in 2014. This means that on average just under 1 in 6 of the households living in these areas were income poor (BHC).

  • 'After Housing Costs' Child Poverty Rate from Highest to Lowest
    Notes: This spreadsheet ranks wards in Greater Manchester by their 'after housing costs' child poverty rate from highest to lowest. This is done using data published by End Child Poverty in 2019. The data also ranks areas based on the proportion of the population in a ward classified as black and minority ethnic (BAME) in census data. The higher the proportion of people who are BAME in a ward the higher the rank. This data shows that areas with the highest BAME populations in Greater Manchester are often the areas with the highest rates of child poverty.

  • History of the Wigan Flashes by Dr Mark Champion and Patricia Rigg
    History of the Wigan Flashes By Dr Mark Champion and Patricia Rigg Introduction – what is a flash? The Wigan Flashes, as we know them, are a result of the mining subsidence which happened around the year 1902. The history of the development of the Wigan Flashes needs to look at the industrial activity on the site and how this has changed the landscape. The coming of the canals, the railways and the development of industrial scale mining in the 19th century, have all helped to produce the landscape that we see now. The nature of “Long Wall Mining” lead to rapid collapse of the abandoned collieries. Indeed, the word “flashes” refers to the formation of the lakes by flash flooding after the subsidence. There is little difference in the outlines of the water bodies since 1908 maps of Wigan Flashes. Aerial photo of Pearsons and Knowles Flash after mining subsidence. All heritage photos with permission of Wigan & Leigh Archives, Wigan Council. Pre-industrial land use The land prior to the impact of the coal mining industry was mainly agricultural, with many areas of peaty mossland occurring. These were part of the Ince Moss complex, stretching over much of the area between Bryn and Hindley. It is likely that the area is similar to that still found near Astley Green, with a mixture of fields with grazing livestock and some barley grown. This included small copses, marshes and wet areas. In this landscape there were a number of farmhouses, halls and buildings, which have been lost over time. These included Westwood House and Hawkley Hall (see below).
