Intra-urban plant relocation: A case study of Greater Manchester
Mason C. M. (1980) Intra-urban plant relocation: a case study of Greater Manchester, Reg. Studies 14, 267–283. Most studies of industrial movement have investigated interregional moves. However, current concern with inner-city decline makes a study of intra-urban movement a relevant issue. An investigation of Greater Manchester between 1966 and 1975 shows that the scale of relocation has been small. Although the movement rate is highest in the inner city the contribution of relocation to employment decentralization is weakened by the small size of migrant establishments, the short distance of most moves and the high level of relocation within the inner city. The clothing and printing industries in particular and small plants in general show a strong attachment to a central location.
