i was the first one on this thread to say Beswick, you're not from around there or you'd know it was muffin territory. You're probably from Wilmslow too

I lived on John Heywood street in Clayton till I was 13/14. Then lived just of Bell Cresent in Beswick on and of for nearly a decade.

I went in my mams local chippy in Miles Platting last night and they sell muffins and always have.

That's typical of Miles Platting there all a bit backwards down there ;-P.
 
I did the stadium and the surrounding area for my dissertation, Bradford is the ward it's in, and Beswick is the housing estate further south.
 
There is a large sign virtually opposite the ground which clearly shows where the ground is situated. It's in Asda.

I come from Wilmslow! Stuart Hall comes from Ashton Under Lyne, William Roache from Ilkely, Derbyshire. We can't help who chooses to live in our town. More welcome residents in the vicinity include Yaya, Lescott, and Barry amongst a host of others. I won't include any of the rag contingent. And we do have barms here.

Now you're talking - personally I like the chicken tikka balti pies at the Etihad, but I'll be packing my barms on the coach to Wembley next week!
 
I have a definitive answer and it's Bradford, with a little bit of land in Beswick.

Take a look at this and the overlay that this blue has made on this site:

<a class="postlink" href="http://www.eastlandsblue.co.uk/eastlands%20map.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.eastlandsblue.co.uk/eastlands%20map.htm</a>

Then look at the map here (you are looking at the top right hand corner):

<a class="postlink" href="http://homepage.ntlworld.com/alscot1/BradfordMemorialSchool2.htm#BradfordMap" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://homepage.ntlworld.com/alscot1/Br ... radfordMap</a>

The bottom map shows a dotted line, im deducing that this is the border between Beswick & Bradford as Beswick and Bradford are written each side of it. This goes across Ashton New Road between Church St. and Rowsley St. It then cuts across to run alongside Rowsley St. on the side near the stadium. So Rowsley St. is actually in Beswick, but as you get through the gates at the Etihad you are in Bradford, except for the very corner of the property at the Ashton Old Road/ Rowsley St. Junction.

Now, I don't have access to these maps, especially the one with the border, so can't say if the border goes back towards the east and if other parts of the ground are in Beswick.

Final answer, the land is mostly in BRADFORD.

I proclaim that Caveman was the closest original answer with Silva's Left foot providing a more definitive answer.

The Mossley pub which is right were the stadium is now on that side of Ashton new road was in Beswick. I know because i used to drink in there.

FFS parts of east Beswick used to be Bradford a longtime ago. Just like part of West Beswick used to be part of Ancoats.
