Around Maine Rd and the true home of the City we all know it was a Barm. If where the Kippax stood it was a barm them it doesn't matter if people in Bolton or Pendle call it a muffin because it's a barm

Baking history 1964 in the link..

The most popular product by far was the Lancashire Oven Bottom Muffin –selling like hotcakes in almost every market in their area. Harold knew a Good Thing when he saw it and went into partnership with one of his former suppliers, Arthur Leigh, who had a bakery on Ashton Old Road in Manchester – Building the whole business around the now famous Oven Bottom Muffin!

If people want to call cakes, muffins in Lancashire I am all for it, just don't call barms - muffins in Manchester

The true home of City is Gorton, where I'm from, and it's a muffin
