All about Sale

Once a small but thriving marketplace on the northern edge of Cheshire, the historic town of Sale has become a popular commuter area and is now a suburb of Trafford in Greater Manchester. Located on the south bank of the River Mersey, Sale was once home to prehistoric humans, evidenced by a flint arrowhead discovered in a local garden in 1894. Today the town ranks as one of the top places to live in the United Kingdom thanks to its arts scene, transport links, and natural areas. One popular green space is Sale Water Park, a 152-acre parkland offering multi-use trails and a large artificial lake where you can kayak, paddleboard, windsurf, and sail.

Sale is well situated for exploring the northwest, and you’ll find plenty of activities and attractions in town, including the Waterside arts centre next to the Bridgewater Canal. An emerging foodie scene features several new independent eateries making a splash, while there is a lively shopping area with a mix of big-name stores and local boutiques. The town is also conveniently located for the sights and shopping of Manchester city centre, just a 20-minute tram ride away.
