"I've noticed it since lockdown": Life inside the Greater Manchester village that's a tourist hotspot... but is being 'spoiled'

Perched right on the edge of Salford is the leafy suburb of Worsley.

Known for its beautiful scenery and landmarks, the affluent and picturesque village can be found along the Bridgewater Canal. With its pretty green stretches and magpie style mock-Tudor houses, it really is a slice of rural life in urban Manchester.
