Thumbprint City
ordsall
Our population of some 7000 (and counting) is known for its resilience and stoicism in the aftermath of an industrial past.
Family, neighbourly support and sharing are integral to life here.
Following the decline of the docks, and widespread demolition of our terraced streets, the area is being regenerated and population figures are on the rise.
Ordsall is triangle shaped; bounded by river and roads, and home to The Salford Lads Club, Ordsall Hall (a Tudor Manor House), Salford Quays (formerly the Manchester Ship Canal), the Lowry and the BBC MediaCity.
