Clayton (Manchester)
Clayton is a suburb of the city of Manchester, in North West England. Historically in Lancashire, it is situated about 3 miles east of the city centre, on Ashton New Road. Clayton takes its name from the Clayton family who owned large parts of land around the area, including Clayton Vale, through which the River Medlock flows (separating Clayton from neighbouring Newton Heath). Clayton was once under the township of Droylsden up until around 1890 when alterations to the Manchester boundary took place. Other towns added to Manchester around this time were Blackley, Crumpsall, Moston, Openshaw and Gorton.

Between 1893 and 1910 Clayton was home to Manchester United F.C., and their precursor club Newton Heath L&YR F.C., after Newton Heath left their North Road ground in the neighbouring district of Newton Heath. Bank Street had a capacity of 50,000 spectators, and was covered on all four sides.Shortly after Manchester United moved to their present ground, in Old Trafford, Stretford, Bank Street was severely damaged in a storm and the remains were demolished soon after.
Manchester Velodrome opened at Clayton in September 1994 and a car park serving it was constructed on the site of Manchester United's old stadium.
