New Islington
Canal marina, Cotton Field Park and Ancoats' modern waterside neighbour.

New Islington sits beside Ancoats with a newer, waterside feel. The marina, tram stop and Cotton Field Park make it a compact place for walks, flats, coffee and canal-side drinks.
It is best folded into an Ancoats visit: breakfast or pastry first, then a loop around the water. The neighbourhood is small, modern and easy to cross without a plan.
