Richmond Grove to Kirkmanshulme Lane

Between Richmond Grove and Kirkmanshulme Lane there was always a mixture of use.  On the corner of Richmond Grove and Stockport Road was the Longsight Presbyterian Church and nearby the Longsight Post Office. On the west side of the road Longsight Hall stood, as it does today, although now it is a Youth Centre.  Longsight Library was behind the Hall but it moved to new premises further down Stockport Road.  Ironically in March of 2009 the library is back in Longsight Hall because the new library is being redeveloped and will not reopen until 2010.  Next to the Hall is the Ducie pub which now stands boarded up.  The old Coach and Horses pub is gone.
