Many of us still hold fond memories of growing up in Manchester.
From hopping on an Orange bus to spending the day at Belle Vue, many of our favourite childhood pastimes can no longer be enjoyed today. But others are still the norm in the city for the next generation, from visits to the Trafford Centre to playing football on a Saturday.
Whether you grew up in the 1960s, were a child of the 1990s or otherwise, we could all name a few of our favourite memories of growing up in Manchester and what made it so special.
From things you would only know if you grew up in the city to the best places to hang out at the weekend, your favourite record shop and everything in between, a lot of it helped make up the fabric of the city and people we know and love today.
