On this guided walk, network with business professionals & explore Northern Quarter history through features of its streets & buildings

Theme of this netwalk

This netwalk in the Northern Quarter takes note of little details, some obvious, many easily overlooked. We’ll look at street names, signs, kerbs, windows, doors, plaques, and at embedded features in walls, on roofs, in pavements. Some have been deliberately placed in the district’s more recent history, others left over from its longer past. All reveal aspects of the Northern Quarter’s story.

Who are these netwalks for?

Business professionals who are interested in Manchester history, and like informal networking. Suitable whether you know the city very well or not at all.

Guests often work in law, accountancy, banking, property, marketing etc in the city and beyond.

Where and when?

Meet outside Smoke and Pepper, Tib Street (near Afflecks)

The walk starts at 12.30pm and ends at 1.30pm but I’ll be there from 12.15pm for anyone who wants to fit in some networking before we start.

Practical details

Netwalks go ahead in all weathers, so please dress for the weather and a walk around town.

Please let me know if you do not wish your name and company name to appear on a list of attendees.
