Wythenshawe is a town in Cheshire developed from scratch from the 1920s for cheap housing for the poor of Manchester and which has now become a contiguous suburb in the south of that city.
After the First World War, in the 1920s, the Manchester Corporation began to build a massive housing estate in Wythenshaw to resolve the problem of its inner city slums (and in 1931, Parliament placed Wythenshawe within the administrative area of Manchester). With an area of approximately 11 square miles, Wythenshawe has often been referred to as one of the largest council housing estates in Europe,[1] although a significant proportion of the estate is now privately owned housing.
Immediately south of Wythenshawe is Manchester Airport, formerly called "Ringway Airport".
The district of the town comprises nine areas: Baguley, Benchill, Peel Hall], Newall Green, Woodhouse Park, Moss Nook, Sharston, Northenden and Northern Moor. The boundaries of these areas have changed throughout the town's history, and previously known areas such as Brownley Green and Crossacres have since been assimilated into one of the areas listed above.
