  • From Manufacturing Industries to a Services Economy: the Emergence of a 'New Manchester' in the Nineteen Sixties
    Introductory essay, Making Post-war Manchester: Visions of an Unmade City, May 2016 From Manufacturing Industries to a Services Economy: The Emergence of a ‘New Manchester’ in the Nineteen Sixties Martin Dodge, Department of Geography, University of Manchester Richard Brook, Manchester School of Architecture ‘Manchester is primarily an industrial city; it relies for its prosperity - more perhaps than any other town in the country - on full employment in local industries manufacturing for national and international markets.’ (Rowland Nicholas, 1945, City of Manchester Plan, p.97) ‘Between 1966 and 1972, one in three manual jobs in manufacturing were lost and one quarter of all factories and workshops closed. … Losses in manufacturing employment, however, were accompanied (although not replaced in the same numbers) by a growth in service occupations.’ (Alan Kidd, 2006, Manchester: A History, p.192) Economic Decline, Social Change, Demographic Shifts During the post-war decades Manchester went through the socially painful process of economic restructuring, switching from a labour market based primarily on manufacturing and engineering to one in which services sector employment dominated. While parts of Manchester’s economy were thriving from the late 1950s, having recovered from the deep austerity period after the War, with shipping trade into the docks at Salford buoyant and Trafford Park still a hive of activity, the ineluctable contraction of the cotton industry was a serious threat to the Manchester and regional textile economy. Despite efforts to stem the tide, the textile mills in 1 Manchester and especially in the surrounding satellite towns were closing with knock on effects on associated warehousing and distribution functions.

  • UCI Track Cycling Nations Cup Newport – 22 - 25 April 2021
    Round # 1 – UCI Track Cycling Nations Cup Newport – 22 - 25 April 2021 GENERAL INFORMATION Newport is a vibrant, multi-cultural city steeped in a rich industrial heritage, where traditional industries sit alongside new electronics and financial service sectors. At the gateway of Wales, surrounded by stunning scenery and a growing international profile Newport may surprise you. Newport’s history dates back to a Celtic settlement 2000 years ago and the city's location at the mouth of the River Usk has attracted visitors for centuries. Caerleon, just a few miles from Newport, was also the site of a fortress of the 2nd (Augustan) Roman legion from the first century AD. The Normans settled in Newport and built a castle beside the river Usk in the 14th century, the remains of which you can see today. The discovery of the remains of a sea-going vessel in 2002 gives evidence of Newport as a centre of industry and trade in the medieval period. During the 19th century industrial revolution Newport expanded rapidly from a small seaport town to one of the most important places in the country for coal export and steel production and the town became known for its accessible modern docks. Newport is also home to the Newport Transporter Bridge, one of around 10 that remain is use throughout the world and one of only two operational transporter bridges in the UK. Global leaders in technology, manufacturing, distribution, financial services and public sector organisations are attracted to the city’s superb location. Over 2.69 million people visit the city annually and events are a key part of Newport having successfully delivered large global events including the Ryder Cup in 2010 and NATO summit in 2014.

  • Cottonopolis
    1 Greater Manchester U3A Network Toolbox 2 Introduction This pack had its origin in the U3A’s greater focus on research by member U3As as a learning activity, as well as a joint project between the GMU3A network and Manchester University ‘Cottonopolis’ was chosen as a uniting theme for this initiative as it summarises the huge impact that the sudden industrial growth of Manchester had on all aspects of society. What you will find in this resource pack is a set of notes organised by theme under the over-arching topic of 'Cottonopolis'. They are intended to help participating U3As of the Greater Manchester U3A Network assess what they might be able to contribute, either as individuals or as groups within their respective U3As, to co-ordinated research as a learning activity which may eventually benefit from a negotiated partnership with the University of Manchester. The themes and associated notes provided here are intended to be suggestive rather than prescriptive. They should be seen as starting points for the dissemination of ideas or as catalysts for further investigation. Hopefully they will allow interested third-agers to claim a stake in an exciting project which seeks to take advantage of our unique geographical location in the world's first industrial city. The notes in this pack do not yet address all aspects of the topic outlined in the diagram of 'the Cottonopolis Effect' on page 4. Please feel free to compile equivalent notes for any topic which still needs developing within your own fields of interest. Tony Pearson, October

  • From Coal Mining to Gold Medals
    From coal mining to gold medals The area around Philips Park has a rich industrial heritage. Former industries include coal mining, cotton mills, engineering works, coking works, power production and chemicals. Famous local industries include Bradford Colliery: coal had been mined in the area since Tudor times, and Bradford coal was used to power the very first cotton mills in Manchester. Deep mine shafts were sunk in the nineteenth century, and in the early twentieth century there was a conveyor belt that took coal to the nearby power station. Bradford Colliery finally closed in 1968. Johnson and Nephew's wire works was similarly famous, supplying wire for the first transatlantic cables and many other products exported all over the world. By the 1980s, most of these traditional industries had closed and the surrounding area was largely derelict with many social problems. East Manchester has been massively transformed and work is continuing by the work of New East Manchester and the development of SportCity. In 2002, East Manchester was the focus of the XVII Commonwealth Games, which brought a wealth of new development to the area, including: • The City of Manchester Stadium • The National Cycling Centre (Manchester Velodrome) • The English Institute of Sport • National Squash Centre • Regional Athletics Arena • Indoor Tennis Centre • For information about SportCity, please visit the SportCity Visitor Centre or check out the website at www.sportcity-manchester.com Medlock Valley Information - Industry Page 1 of 1 .
