Engine Fold

Engine Fold is a residential area in Greater Manchester, nestled between Walkden and Little Hulton within Salford's boundaries. Access via the A580 East Lancashire Road or M60 junction 13, with the A6 providing quick links to Manchester city centre. The area sits within the former industrial heartland where mill communities have transformed into commuter suburbs. Engine Fold derives its name from a historic coal mining engine house, with "fold" being local dialect for an enclosed farmstead.
