A once bustling shopping district described as a place where people could "buy everything on one street" is now just a distant memory for many Mancunians.
East of Manchester city centre, Cross Street in Gorton was once filled with busy shoppers. Not to be confused with Cross Lane in Gorton, you won't find any trace of Cross Street on a modern map.
In the past, people also flocked to Gorton to visit Belle Vue's now lost zoological gardens, stadium and amusement park. And it was on a Facebook group dedicated to Belle Vue that a recently uploaded image of Cross Street sparked some fantastic memories.
