A cluster of writers and creative-critical thinkers from Manchester Metropolitan’s Department of English established the Centre for Place Writing. Our aim is to develop new research in the field and promote the study of the genre, alongside providing a platform to discuss and showcase new thinking and writing on place. On this channel you will find recordings of our international events with key figures in the field discussing writing on place with members of the Centre.
