Here's the Mancunian Way for today:
Hello,
This picture of classic red telephone boxes lined up near Piccadilly Gardens in 1969 shows a bygone era. The smartly dressed woman in shot evokes a time when head scarves, smart macs and court shoes were a must for any metropolitan inhabitant.
The image is taken from nostalgia reporter Lee Grimsditch’s piece about Manchester during the 1960s, which I love for its fascinating insight into post-war Britain.
In today’s newsletter, we’ll visit the Manc enclave where the inhabitants feel like they’re neither one thing or another. We’ll also be discussing the bold new vision for the old UMIST campus, more CAZ drama and why Angela Rayner wilts in the sun. Let’s begin.
I must admit I had never heard of the village of Gamesley, in High Peak, where a community of Manchester ex-pats moved in the 1960s.
Arriving on double-deckers buses from the terraced streets of Hulme, Ardwick, Bradford and Ancoats, they were relocated as part of the slum clearances.
Gamesley was a brand new council estate in the hills above Glossop and to many, moving there was a shock to the system.
"I think I expected Gamesley to be like Wythenshawe or Clayton with all the houses closer together. I didn't expect to see open fields or all the mud," said Mike Dewhurst, one of the original tenants, in From Smoke to Grass, a history of the estate.
"One of the first winters we had up here was terrible. We lived on a ginnel and the snow must have been three or four feet up. It had snowed in Manchester but it went quickly.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter Over a single weekend, 28-year-old Toronto resident Daniel Konikoff will experience two life-changing events. On July 23, he’s getting married. Two days before, he’s going to the movies with his bride-to-be and their entire wedding party for a double feature of Greta Gerwig’s very pink romp “Barbie” and Christopher Nolan’s extremely dark historical drama “Oppenheimer.” “It stemmed from a joke, and then we started to actually create a plan,” Konikoff says. “So, the double bill is a little wedding-adjacent party.” As soon as the second movie lets out at 1 a.m. — “it’s bed!” he adds. “And then we drive to the venue. There’s not a lot of sleep, but you gotta do what you gotta do.”
