In this video we visit Manchester's lost Island of Pomona. The island has a fascinating role in Manchester history. From the Cornbrook strawberry gardens to a major victorian entertainment zoological and botanical gardens and The royal Pomona palace. Finally Manchester docks. The film A taste of honey was filmed here also. Its long standing rivalry with Belle Vue zoological gardens is interesting. To explore its history requires urban exploring and historical research to tell this historical story of Victorian and Edwardian Britain. #history #manchester #stories • Music: 'Our purpose to define' by Emiles Telegraphic Transmission Device • Music provided by HearWeGo • Artist: Andy Leech • Title: I Love You • Listen on YouTube: • Andy Leech - I Love You • Category • Music • Licence • Creative Commons Attribution licence (reuse allowed)
