The District of Cheetham, Manchester in the County of -- Lancashire --

Confusion arises as to where the boundaries of Cheetham, Cheetham Hill and Crumpsall lie, as part of Cheetham Hill village is in Crumpsall in the City of Manchester and part of it is in Broughton in the City of Salford.

Towards the end of the 1700’s, Cheetham was described as a tiny hamlet surrounded by glorious countryside with gently undulating hills, green valleys and fields. In the tiny hamlet were two Inns where the weary might rest and refresh themselves.
