Welcome to the web site of the Salford Methodist Circuit. We are located in North West England on the western side of the city of Manchester, well known throughout the world as a centre of the textile industry in times past, but probably more well-known now for its main football team, Manchester United.
Many people, but not Salfordians, forget there are two cities side by side - the cities of Manchester and Salford. Some 220,000 people are proud to call Salford their home, and Salford holds a number of ‘firsts’ including the distinction of having the first free public library in the world. The Lowry Centre, which houses many of the works of the painter L. S. Lowry, and the Imperial War Museum (North), both in the Salford Quays area, are visited by people from across the country and the world.
Our Circuit stretches from the inner city, through suburbia, to quite rural settings at the western edge. We are a newly amalgamated circuit with all the challenges and opportunity that brings. The challenges we have set before us in the Circuit Mission Statement, that has recently been adopted by our Circuit Meeting, can be seen elsewhere on our web site.
We hope you will enjoy visiting our web site, but we hope even more that you will have the opportunity of visiting one or more of our Churches if you find yourself in the area.
