This exhibition developed by the University of Salford will display a small selection of photographs by Salford-born social documentary photographer Shirley Baker. 

The exhibition will focus on the way in which the change to the built environment of Salford from 'slum' to modern, was captured in Shirley's work. The photographs will be displayed alongside material from the Working Class Movement Library's own collections relating to housing and photography to stimulate the recollection of people's memories of living in Salford at this time.
