What is recorded here
This black commemorative plaque records: 4, 6 & 8 Bradley Street. Two 'one up-one down' houses in each of these three outriggers to the rear of the grander properties on Lever Street were built in 1787. Although rebuilt and altered in 1996 they represent the last surviving examples of this type of accommodation in the City. Records indicate as many as 12 people living in one property. Recorded plaque organisation: Manchester City Council.
4, 6 & 8 Bradley Street are historically significant as the last remaining examples of "one up-one down" houses built in 1787, illustrating the crowded living conditions endured by working-class families in urban areas.
