P is for Parrs Wood in the special Manchester Alphabet

I was born in central Manchester and lived, until the age of six, just off Parrs Wood Road in Burnage. So it’s quite poignant in a way that I should be returning to the area, at Parrs Wood School on Saturday for the Christmas Fair. And to mark the occasion I’ve produced a special edition of my Manchester Alphabet, which now features Parrs Wood under P and in the headline. 

I’m taking 10 A4 mounted prints of it to the fair, but you can alway email to order a print of any size at statementartworks@gmail.com

The paragraph reads:

‘P is for Parrs Wood - a pleasure palace, a leafy road, a top school on the banks of the River Mersey and the gateway to Manchester. Also for Pips, mostly a handbag disco, but which had the Roxy Room, the real birthplace of Manchester Indie music.’

The original Manchester Alphabet

And the bespoke version...

I started doing them as presents for friends, but now they are taking off with the public - my bespoke Manchester Alphabet posters. So in this example, I've changed the original P is for....to P is for Phil Jones, who is my mate over the road. I've added some other details and used his name in the headline too. All I charge for the work is an extra tenner on top of the framed and poster prices. Just contact me on statementartworks@gmail.com if you fancy having one done for you, a friend or relative. And if you live in Sale, check out my Sale poster on www.statementartworks.com - the strap line at the bottom could easily carry your name or street or both!
