It  began to expand "at an astonishing rate" only around the turn of the 19th century. Manchester's unplanned urbanisation came due  to a boom in textile manufacture . This  and resulted in Manchester becoming the world's first industrialised city.

Manchester achieved city status in 1853. The Manchester Ship Canal opened in 1894, creating the Port of Manchester and linking the place to the sea, 36 miles (58 km) to the west. Its fortunes declined after the Second World War, but the IRA bombing in 1996 led to extensive investment and regeneration.
