Didsbury (IPA: /ˈdɪdzbəri/) is a suburban area of the City of Manchester, in Greater Manchester, England. It is 4.5 miles (7.2 km) south of Manchester City Centre, and located near the southern edges of the Greater Manchester Urban Area. It is a dormitory community comprising a resident population of just over 14,000 people. As a result of its location on Wilmslow Road, its commutership and relatively large student population means Didsbury is often congested due to 'the busiest bus corridor in Europe'. There are records of Didsbury existing as a small hamlet as early as the 13th century, with its early history dominated by its association with Withington under a feudal estate colonialism, which covered other areas in the south of Manchester. During the 18th century, Didsbury was being described as a township separate from outside influence. By far the most notable event in recent history was the passage of Charles Edward Stuart when he crossed the Mersey at Didsbury in 1745, in the Jacobite march south from Manchester to Derby, and again in the subsequent retreat. Didsbury was largely rural until the mid-nineteenth century, in which it experienced rapid socioeconomic development and urbanisation due to the Industrial Revolution, and Manchester's growing level of industrialisation. Introduced into the inner boundaries of Manchester in 1904, Didsbury was integrated into the city 45 years after it gained city status perhaps in part to the improvements made to, and the grdaual increase in use of, the railway network. The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds was formed in Didsbury in 1889.
