Living here
Ardwick Green is a small public park with a cenotaph to the Eighth Ardwicks, a former Territorial Army unit, and a large glacial boulder at one end. The Church of St Thomas, consecrated in 1741, stands on its north side. The O2 Apollo, a Grade II listed Art Deco cinema that opened in 1938, is on Stockport Road at Ardwick Green and is now a concert venue.
Getting to uni
The buses through Ardwick Green run into Piccadilly rather than to the Oxford Road campus, which is about 15 minutes on foot from Ardwick Green, or longer from the eastern side of Ardwick. The 192 runs every few minutes along Stockport Road between Ardwick Green and Piccadilly, and the 201, 202, 203 and 205 run along Hyde Road into town.
Good to know
Manchester City have Ardwick roots: as Ardwick AFC the club moved to its Hyde Road ground in 1887, became Manchester City in 1894 and stayed until 1923. The former Nicholls Hospital on Hyde Road, a Grade II listed building, is now The Manchester College's Nicholls Campus for adult education. Ardwick has its own railway station, but only a couple of trains a day call there.

HMO management in Ardwick.
Own a student house or HMO in Ardwick? It's one of the areas we cover from our office on Dickenson Road. We find and reference the tenants, collect the rent, handle repairs and keep the licence and safety certificates in date. Or we do just the part you want help with.
HMOs here are licensed by Manchester City Council. A house let to five or more people who form two or more households needs a mandatory HMO licence, and some streets are also covered by selective licensing. Since 2011, turning a family home into a shared house anywhere in Manchester has needed planning permission (an Article 4 direction). We can apply for the licence and keep it in date.
