Manchester, Blackley /ˈblkli/ was a borough constituency represented in the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom which existed from 1918 to 2010.

Boundaries

Manchester Blackley in Lancashire, boundaries used 1974-83

1918–1974: The County Borough of Manchester wards of Blackley, Crumpsall, and Moston.

1974–1983: The County Borough of Manchester wards of Blackley, Charlestown, Crumpsall, Lightbowne, and Moston.[1]

1983–2010: The City of Manchester wards of Blackley, Charlestown, Crumpsall, Harpurhey, Lightbowne, and Moston.

This constituency was one of Labour's safest seats, though prior to 1964 it was regarded as a reasonably safe Conservative seat, with the party only gaining the seat once, in their 1945 landslide victory. Located in the North of the city, it included the overspill area of Blackley, the deprived inner-city area of Harpurhey, and the districts of Moston, Crumpsall and Charlestown.

Boundary review

From 2010 this seat was abolished, and its constituents form one part of the Blackley and Broughton seat with two electoral wards from Salford.
