History of Manchester - 4. Canal City
Manchester's story continues with the introduction of the world's first industrial canal system. We' start by looking at why the River Irwell didn't become Manchester's primary port or its biggest waterway as the industrial era expanded and trade needed to move in and out of the city fast.
Then we move onto the only other option - canals. First the famous Bridgewater Canal - its origins, its source at Worsley Delph, and its terminus at the new Castlefield Basin in Manchester city centre.
Then we look at how the basin itself was constructed, and how it encouraged some of the world's earliest and largest industrial-era warehouses.
Finally, we'll see how other canals soon surrounded the Manchester region, including those that cut through the city centre itself.
