	Harpurhey - Districts & Suburbs of Manchester UK
		Harpurhey - Districts and Suburbs of Manchester UK Manchester and the Northwest Region of England
		The district of Harpurhey was named in the early 14th century after William Harpour who enclosed some 80 acres of land that were formerly part of the Forest of Blackley.
		Harpurhey, along with Crumpsall and Blackley were to become areas that specialised in dyeing and bleaching, and the Andrews Dyeworks came to dominate the geographic and economic affairs of the district.

		Mr Leese, who is a councillor from a ward that borders Harpurhey, claims that the new index could hamper efforts to regenerate the area.
		When the research was conducted 55% of residents were in poor health, a third did not own their own home and crime was rife.
		In the last index of deprivation in 2000 Harpurhey was not even among the poorest areas in Manchester, never mind England.

	History of Hough Hall and Moston
		Proceeding northwards from Pleasant Street you came immediatley to the lodge gates of Harpurhey Cottage, and caught a glimpse of the loveley old world garden with greenhouses running down one side of it.
		I believe at one time it belonged to Harpurhey Hall, which I am told, extended down Oak Bank to the road where the gates were, with this lodge at the entrance.
		Harpurhey is now a big town, but my mind still dwells fondly on it as a little suburban village.
