Anyone work in Spinningfields, Manchester?

Urmston is overlooked, nice town, railway link to Deansgate and Oxford road stations, sensible house prices, right on the Mersey with nice walks etc, live music pubs and a really good steak house.

If you do move up don't get swallowed in by the current south manchester obsession that's going on. West Didsbury and these places are ok but I don't really get the craze. There are plenty of other villages / towns that have decent places to eat / drink without getting suckered into paying through the nose for a pokey flat.

I agree. I grew up in 'proper' Didsbury and, back then, West Didsbury was a hole. No amount of trendy bars will make me think that it's not cramped and overpriced.

House prices used to be sensible but now people are getting a bit carried away.

3 bed semi with garage and nice garden for under £200K is value for money is it not?

Cheadle Hume good but prices have been high for a while and the commute would be torture.

I work in Spinningfields and live in Bramhall. Commute takes me 35 mins. Hardly torture.
