Didsbury, Residential suburb in South Manchester, United Kingdom.

Didsbury extends along the north bank of the River Mersey, featuring tree-lined streets and Victorian buildings across its eastern and western sections.

The area evolved from a small farming settlement called Dydesbyre to become part of Manchester in 1904 during the industrial urbanization period.

The Church of St James, established in 1235, stands as a central religious monument with stone architecture dating back to the seventeenth century.

Fletcher Moss Botanical Garden spans 21 acres of green space, containing rare plant species and providing recreational areas for local residents.

The Manchester South District Line railway opening in 1880 transformed this rural hamlet into a major residential district of Manchester.
