You will be developing your research skills, and I invite all of you to join this blog as authors, so that you can contribute your links and ideas here. Below, I have kicked off with an example of how to start finding useful links and information.
First Batch of Links - TO BE OPENED AND READ!
Click here for a useful link to the Working Class Movement Archive, with detailed information about playwright Walter Greenwood and his social and political background. Click here for a useful archive at the University of Salford, which houses some historical information on Walter Greenwood.
You will need to find out as much information about the area and history of Hanky Park in Salford.
Click here for some information on the area today. Please also register to join the online discussion forum on the Salford Council website, which provides a wide range of resources, stories, links, photos.
A website has been set up to preserve memories, images and stories of Old Salford. Click here to check it out.
Listen to 'Dirty Old Town' by the Dubliners, which was written about Salford.
That's plenty to get you started - I shall look forward to YOUR posts!
Emma
