So where is Levenshulme?
Levenshulme lies 3 miles south east of the city centre of Manchester, UK. It’s
area is roughly the same as the M19 postcode. It’s a typical inner city
area, with a diverse culture, a fair range of social problems, a run down environment.
But its a lively and generally friendly place, with around 15,000 residents.
There is a lot of owner occupied and rented housing, and a good shopping district
based along the Stockport Road (including a good number of antique shops and
restaurants). There are also a number of pubs, many catering for the Irish community,
and lots of late night take-aways (so also lots of litter at times).
