Mayfield Stories Sketchbook 1

Including a derelict former railway station, a neglected river and a dozen or more redundant industrial units, Mayfield is Manchester’s next big success story in the making.

Fast forward 10 years and a new 6.5-acre public park will be the centrepiece of a £1bn mixed-use community including apartments, offices, retail and leisure opportunities.

As the demolition workers move in and planning applications are submitted, sketcher and writer Len Grant grabs his pen and watercolours to tell the Mayfield story from the ground up.

The Mayfield Stories Sketchbook is softback, 104 pages, 174mm x 126 mm (bigger than A6 but smaller than A5)
