A true story of underdog success: Manchester began as a small civilian settlement established by the Romans. The city has since seen vast change, with pioneering developments in industry, expansion and social revolution. Abandoned warehouses are now being renovated, old Victorian architecture has received a timely make-over, and the famous Manchester Docklands have had a £200 million restoration; all these developments have added charm to Manchester’s famously gritty cityscape.
