Prestwich

Prestwich is a surburban town in the Metropolitan Borough of Bury, Greater Manchester, England, 3.3 miles north of Manchester downtown area, 3.1 miles north of Salford and 4.7 miles south of Bury. Historically part of Lancashire, Prestwich was the seat of the old ward of Prestwich-cum-Oldham, in the hundred of Salfordshire. The Church of St Mary the Virgin a Grade I recorded building has lain at the focal point of the network for quite a long time.

The most established piece of Prestwich, around Bury New Road, is known as Prestwich Village. There is an extensive Jewish people group in Prestwich and Whitefield, neighboring Broughton Park in Salford and segments of Cheetham Hill and Crumpsall, Manchester, which shape the second-biggest Jewish people group in the United Kingdom.

Cover New Road generally pursues the line of a Roman street associating fortifications at Mamucium and Bremetennacum. It is conceivable that a Roman fortification or place to stay was worked at "Chateau Hill", close to the Salford outskirt, reflecting a settlement on Rainsough Hill equidistant from the Roman road. John Booker B.A., 19th century writer and clergyman of the area church, considered these were agrarian camps worked to secure dairy cattle kept in the forested areas of Broughton and Kersal.
