Clayton, Manchester

Clayton is a district of Manchester, England, three miles east of the city centre on Ashton New Road.

Other towns added to Manchester around this time were Blackley, Crumpsall, Moston, Openshaw and Gorton.

Shortly after Manchester United moved to their present ground, in Old Trafford, Bank Street was severely damaged in a storm and the remains were demolished soon after.

[6] The Hall is a Grade II* listed building,[7] a scheduled ancient monument, and is rare example of a medieval moated site (grid reference SJ88099857).

[citation needed] In 1897, the building was acquired by Manchester City Corporation, ensuring its survival.

In 2019-2020, there have been further interior improvements, with new gas central heating installed, meaning that the congregation now worships in a warm environment for the first time in decades.

[citation needed] The building is unique for its patterned brickwork and the richly furnished interior.
