History Northenden has a long history, having been mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. It was then a small farming community with a manor house and woodland. The name means "northern dale or valley", presumably a reference to its close proximity to the River Mersey.[1] A line drawing entitled Domesday Book from Andrew Williamss Historic Byways and Highways of Old England. ...

Wythenshawe Hall is a historic house and a former stately home in Wythenshawe, Greater Manchester, England, east of Altrincham and south of Stretford, and five miles south of Manchester city centre. ...
As Northenden is on a major (and very old) crossing of the Mersey on the Salt Road from Cheshire to Manchester, it prospered in medieval times. The ford was an important passageway north out of and into Manchester (now Ford Lane), as there was no bridge over the Mersey between Sale and Stockport, until in 1745 Bonnie Prince Charlie's army built a troop-bridge out of big poplar tree trunks where the B5095 (Manchester Road, Didsbury) now crosses the Mersey, south of Didsbury, in his abortive attempt to seize the crown of England. The Northenden ford was unusual because its northern and southern ends were not opposite each other, but people using the ford had to wade about 500 feet along the riverbed. The Simon's Bridge was built at the ford in 1901 to help access to Poor's Field, and the rent from this field was used by the church to buy blankets and clothes for the needy. The Middle Ages formed the middle period in a traditional schematic division of European history into three ages: the classical civilization of Antiquity, the Middle Ages, and modern times. ...

Distance from Manchester enabled Northenden to avoid the Industrial Revolution in the 19th century, and it has remained partially rural to this day, even though it has the M56 and M60 motorways on either end of the village. The nearest it came to industrialisation was a cottage industry in flax spinning. In the 1980s the area became part of the Mersey Valley Park, and the banks of the river form part of the Mersey Valley Trail.

Northenden is referred to as a village by the locals, but was engulfed in suburban housing estate as the very large Wythenshawe housing estate was built. Northenden rapidly developed a shopping centre along Palatine Road to service the new neighbourhood with all the necessities of life - hotels, shops, schools, churches, small businesses, and service industries. Eventually, Wythenshawe got its own shops and commercial centre, and the motorways bypassed the village, so that it was able to return to the (more-or-less) sleepy village it had always been. “Suburbia†redirects here. ...
