Stretford:
An Illustrated History
Vicki Masterson and Karen Cliff
Over the last 300 years Stretford has undergone dramatic
change, from farming community to industrialised centre.
But Stretford’s industrial history is only part
of this wide-ranging account, which also features
the Botanical Gardens of 1831, Manchester United’s
Old Trafford football ground and fascinating photographs
of Stretford during World War Two. The photographs
are all from the unrivalled archive at Trafford Local
Studies Centre.
