Items related to The Gangs of Manchester: The Story of the Scuttlers,...
The Gangs of Manchester tells the story of the first modern youth tribes – the scuttlers – and their battles for supremacy on the streets of nineteenth century Manchester and Salford. Driven by pride, revenge and sheer devilment, gangs such as the Bengal Tigers, the Bungall Boys and the Meadow Lads clashed with knives and belts in seemingly endless feuds lasting three decades. Historian Andrew Davies traces the history of the scuttlers from the Rochdale Road War of 1870-1871, through the antics of such infamous fighters as the Bellis brothers of Salford and John Hillier, the King of the Scuttlers, to the demise of the gangs at the turn of the century.
