Hardman Square, Pedestrian zone and square in Spinningfields, Manchester, UK
Place Hardman is a pedestrian zone and small square in the Spinningfields district of Manchester. The space is surrounded by modern office buildings and fitted with paved paths, a few trees, and benches.
The area around Spinningfields was once part of Manchester's old trading and commercial district. Over recent decades it was redeveloped into a modern business quarter, which shaped the square as it stands today.
The square is easy to reach on foot from Manchester city center's main streets and works well as a starting point for a walk through Spinningfields. Nearby cafes and restaurants make it a convenient spot for a short break.
The square is regularly used for temporary events such as pop-up markets and outdoor activities, which means it can look quite different from one visit to the next. Its position right next to known venues like The Ivy Spinningfields makes it a lively meeting point in the middle of a business district.
