I have just come across this:
http://vimeo.com/68841275
which is the first part of a factual project by (I think) Salford University looking at life in old Salford prior to the 1960s clearances. It's a haunting piece of film made about 1968 but clearly shows how life had been for local residents for many years before. It lasts about 26 minutes. I do hope this link works. I came across it on Facebook as I belong to several groups with an interest in Manchester and Salford history. Second part:
