Archive: Hanky Park in 1963
Hanky Park once boasted fifty or so pubs and many off-licences in less than one square mile.
They were mostly street corner pubs and were more often known by their nicknames rather than by their original names.
The area of Hanky Park was demolished in the 1960s and replaced by high-rise flats.
This report from 1963 looked at what remained of Salford's Hanky Park, largely a handful of pubs where the loyal locals refused to leave.
