As the land was purchased by the Manchester Ship Canal Company, under an Act of Parliament, with the majority shareholder being the old Manchester Corporation it all became De Facto Manchester.
Salford Docks however are another matter as they were in, erm... Salford ;-)

OK Bumbles the ship canal has nothing to do with manchester Hmmm !!! try telling that to the long dead MP`s and councillors from MANCHESTER and the people of erm MANCHESTER who petitioned parliament many times for the canal to get dug, while people were literally starving to death due to what amounted to a financial blockade by the Liverpool MP`s and port authorities for their own ends, so yes in my eyes the the people of Manchester (and surrounding areas) are Great Mancunians to stand up against the might of Liverpool and the indifferance of London based politicians. Just as a side product it put Salfud otherwise unknown on the map.bumbles said:most of the people you mentioned are not form Manchester ...adn the ship canal has nothing to do with Manchester...it is in salford.
