These shots were all taken on Darley Avenue in Didsbury and on the banks of the Mersey, which flows in between Darley Avenue and the golf course behind it. Historically, the area has significance in that Prince Rupert stationed himself nearby during the English Civil War and that Bonnie Prince Charlie likely crossed the Mersey in the area in 1745. [x] The architecture in the shots, however, looks to be Victorian. The area is still quite gentrified, with many gates outside houses being kept locked with buzzer systems.
An interesting set of images Helen, I wont comment on the brief as this is Richards, but you have produced some well composed images, and it is good to see you posting again.
