Editorial fit: Affordable Living

Benchill is in the centre of Wythenshawe, one of Europe's largest social housing estates. It has struggled with deprivation but benefits from proximity to Wythenshawe Park — one of Manchester's biggest green spaces. The Civic Centre provides local amenities. Very affordable.
