By almost any objective measure, the immense crescent-shaped housing blocks that once dominated Hulme in Manchester were a failure. Completed in 1972, the Hulme Crescents were soon deemed defective and dangerous – and by the mid-1990s they were gone. But objective measures don't tell the full story.

Photographer Richard Davis moved to Manchester in 1988, setting up his studio in a Hulme squat and documenting the world outside his door. And what a world it was.

Powerful and richly evocative, Richard's images of Hulme reveal the people and politics, the architecture and anarchy of a scene that no one had yet learned how to tame.
