Today we visit Salford home of the Manchester, Bolton and Bury Canal Restoration, The River Irwell and the Manchester and Salford Junction Canal. Manchester was once a booming industrial town and these canals helped fuel the development. Now buried beneath sky scrapers the canal network is thriving and developing into a green space, a nature corridor and a commuter route for many giving a green lung back to the city
