🥰 What Goes Around Comes Around. 💝

I will going Manchester Angel Meadow and St Michaels Flags from history WOW. I look round M/CR Angel + St Michaels ok.

Beautifully narrated, thank you!

First heard of this via Martin Zero...

My great great great grandad came over from Ireland during the potato famin, on his daughters birth certificate which my Dad still holds states address of birth is 6 Angel Street which is now the Angel pub.

These days many walk these streets totally oblivious of the sorrid past that was this & many other dire slum neighbourhoods in Manchester.

Another case of white privilege!

My grandad and my uncle John Joseph were baptized at St.Michael's. My Mam was at the last service before it closed. My people would usually call the Flags- the burying ground.

Only recently found out about Annie……..Why?l!

Hi Barry, which hotel did you stay in on this visit. Loved the videos.

Oldham University? What a joke! The town has been neglected or ruined by successive councils. The town itself is a joke - and a bloody big one. Best wishes from a Gloddick Mouse.

I went to st Cathrines school over the irk ,near the dwellings,, used to call st micheals the flat buriel ground. 1050s . 🇬🇧

I don’t think those are the Angel steps from Lowry’s painting. I think the steps from Lowry’s painting are at the bottom of the park, at Irk street. I’m open to correction though.

This is an example of "white privilege."

Glad my great Grandparents left there and came to Australia, Hughes.

Very interesting presentation. THANKS👍👍

Yes People have no idea of the true history of this country They assume we had it easy!!! How wrong!! My mother was a clog wearer who started in the mill at 14 Sanitation was the same in the 1920s in Leigh Lancashire, one toilet at the end of the alley

At 13.14 can be seen a former hat block factory of William Plant & Sons. My grandfather worked there as a foreman for a while (his father being one of the Sons) but it wasn't really his thing and he went on to be a performer in comedy and singing (Jimmy Plant).

Excellent Video rewatched it and it is one of the best moved to watching Martin Zeros Videos !. This one is eerily good could easily be the London East End reported on by Booth..

Love my home city, the people, the place, everything, about it , even the sad things like Angel Meadows make Manchester the place it is today. 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝

Very interesting video, my husband drove me round there a couple of weeks ago to show me where it was.

I played on the flags. Three previous generations of my family lived around Vauxhall st. I remember the smell of the tannery now. Hell on earth to us. To my fore father's home. Live far away now. When i come back i feel at home.

0:51 fair play my mothers line was Welsh/Manchester 💯🇬🇧❤️ 1:53

Is this what they call "White Privilege"? Born Ardwick and we knew of these horrors

Class video Barry being to hotel a lot can’t fault it just like your video cheers

I wouldn't ever admit or tell that my ancestors lived in slums. Immigrants n over crowding are the problem. Illegals .they end up dieing n it's not America's fault.

Great watch. I love to see anything about Angel Meadow and its varied history, especially of the industrial past! I've lived in the area for a number of years now. Didn't realise it was 40k buried though! A huge number really!

The good old days 😮

An excellent and informative video, thanks. I first came across Angel Meadow in a book about life in and around there with some survivors working at Smithfield Market. I think it was written by a teacher about his forebears. It was, as you said, ‘He’ll on earth.”

marx and engels built the road of good intentions, we know where that ended . 100 million murdered. People make their own slum, give them nice houses and they soon turn into a slum.

the fellow's so softly-spoken I can't hear him when the audio to filmed outdoor scenes that accompany his narration end up drowning out what the fellow's trying to relate...what sort of quarters is a one-up-one-down, and what's corp?

Great to see this.

I live near there now it’s really interesting to learn the history of the place

My grand mother was a Kilcourse and lived in the 'Meadow until she met my granddad who lived in the Greengate tenements. Her elder brother started a stall in the local meat and veg market (my brother had a unit there when it became the village project in the early 80s), but now in my late 70s I can still recall the tales my gran used to tell, many quite naughty and she said that times were hard, but they all worked as a community, something that folks today can take a lesson from

2:04 - the same thing is still going on - landlords are buying houses, turning the rooms into flats, and then letting them out at horribly inflated prices. HMOs I believe they're called.

on en revient il y a trois jours ,très bel hotel d une grande propreté..un personnel plus que serviable .hélas que des anglais pratiquement .ils sont assez tristes et pas fêtards.dommage ensuite aucune ambiance de fête dans cet hotel club animation quasi inexistante. Moyenne d âge 65 ans.donc je comprend mieux le calme.

I lived not far away from there in the 60's, I remember as a kid going down to play football on the flags.. it was before they properly pulled the building down and all that remained was a big shell.. it was very eerie..

I'm sat on Angel Meadow listening to this. I'm painting the new apartments buildings. We are using the old working girls building as a temporary office. Very interesting story

Was Angel Meadow bombed in the Blitz?

very much like Cardiff.. then and now.. thankyou for sharing this 🙂 x

My Grandad lived in the Exile of Erin pub with his uncle after parents died . Didn’t have a easy childhood and went to the ragged school . His life changed for the better when he joined the RAF just before the 2nd world war

Wilfred(Billy) Hopkins wrote about his mother's childhood and his early childhood in Angel Meadow before they were bombed out in 1940 and were re-housed near Smedley Lane Cheetham He wrote 6 books altogether , The first two were largely dictated by his mother Kate Lally , before her death in about 1979 His books are a slightly fictionalised account of what really happened. His way out of poverty was passing the 11 plus and going to Xavarian College in 1939 His first 2 books are called Our Kid , and Kate's story. He writes about his aunt and Cousin living in the basement of their house in "Butler Court ". I have found his family in the 1881 Census.

About time Mark Richie packed it in its becoming boring after 27 years.

Great Video also watch Martin Zeros Video. Church Schools are an element of poor areas, near me in Walthamstow there is a superb Church which was a working Lighthouse !!! With a large Sunday School and memorial hall.

Excellent Video I already knew of Angel Meadows having watched a video on the area by Martin Zero.. Many towns and cities had a area like this when industrial Revolution started and people flooded into already crowded cities. As a Londoner there were many places normally near to obnoxious industry where cheap Jerry built houses were thrown up by unscrupulous landlords Many persisted into the 20th century Many nears the Docks were flattened by the Luftwaffe and Many people moved out if London to places like Harlow Stevenage and other New Towns.

Fantastic video! I live in the Angel Meadow area and it’s important to know the history of where you live. Very sympathetic commentary on the struggles of these early communities- it’s a shame this isn’t more widely taught to new generations. It shows how important it is to notice the stories around you. You made some great observations and it’s quite poignant.

Another very informative video Barry thank you. First came across your site when I was looking for information about the Hovima Costa Adeje that we had booked for 23rd June 22, however due to TUI overselling and under delivering they cancelled on us,really feel sorry for the other pax who do not have the flexibility that we have ( retired couple) our daughter is currently staying here in the Sol Matias Beach and has given us rave reviews. Without hesitation I have booked for the 20th August with Jet 2 and so looking forward. Keep up the excellent reviews Renee and Barry, I shall have to make you my No 1 go too. Best Regards and good health.

Thank you so much for making this documentary. Well done 😊👍... Some real sadness. But good to see how things were changed for good and Ill.
