Calling students and the curious…

Join us for a unique walking tour to discover the history of Manchester women associated with the Oxford Road Corridor as part of The Cultural Welcome programme. Artists, writers, scientists, medics, campaigners – many were pioneers in their fields but may still lack recognition, including Elizabeth Gaskell.

The guided walk starts at Grosvenor Square (All Saints Park), off Oxford Road, and will finish at Elizabeth Gaskell’s House. The cost includes entry to Elizabeth Gaskell’s House so you can learn more about the writer, social reformer and radical.

Normal ticket price is £18 and includes the 90 minute walking tour, entry to Elizabeth Gaskell’s House. With support from our friends at Oxford Road Corridor, students can come for free as part of The Cultural Welcome. Spaces are limited so booking is essential for all ticket types.

All proceeds from ticket sales support Elizabeth Gaskell’s House, an independent museum and registered charity which celebrates the life and literature of Elizabeth Gaskell.
