So sad to see what was once a thriving shopping centre and market. I was born down Langworthy Rd in the 60's and the market which is now a car park next to Lidl was a hive of activity. I still remember the stall holders shouting there wares, the old ladies in the hair rollers chattering as they caught up with the gossip. It's changed so much, and sadly not for the better..

Boy that evokes so many memories, I was more 70s, black peas baked tatties whilst mooching at at the many stalls. It was a lovely atmosphere, bloody sighs x

Lidl was also part of the outdoor market. As for the original indoor market next to the Church, well that's been leveled too.

lived in Fitzwarren street 55 years ago, lovely to see the area again, when I lived there the shopping centre was new, sad to see its decline.

Lived there from 71-85 on Edgehill close. Great memories of the precinct and so many laughs growing up. Such a shame to see how it looks now.😪

Born and still live in Salford the precinct was alot better in the 90s when I was about 9 or 10 the outside market was mint. And I loved running around the indoor one too. Different place now, the soul has been sucked right out of it.

Salford is a massive red area of Greater Manchester. The city of Salford is wall to wall red, very few City fans live there. My dad's family are Failsworth and New Moston (North Manchester), which North Manchester is massive Man Utd area as well. Mancunians and Salfordians, twin cities, and brother's they are 🙂
