Oldham Street
Oldham Street is in Manchester city centre and forms part of the city's historic Northern Quarter district. The Northern Quarter is dominated by buildings that were built before the Second World War.
The street runs from Piccadilly northwards to Great Ancoats Street on the edge of Ancoats, beyond which it continues further north as Oldham Road, the A62. The street is a part of Manchester which is on a tentative list as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The Methodist Central Hall stands on the east side.
Until the 1970s Oldham Street formed one of the principal shopping areas of Manchester city centre. However the construction of the large indoor Arndale Centre to the west during this decade saw most of the well known and long established high street stores closed or relocated.
