The original concept for a new business district of the city was conceived in 1997 when Allied London purchased a series of buildings in the area that would become Spinningfields. Convinced of the regeneration potential of the area, and potential of the city of Manchester, Allied London began work on a 20 year masterplan for Spinningfields.

Between 2000 – 2020 Allied London has invested heavily in the development of the Spinningfields estate, creating a new thriving business, shopping and leisure district of the city. An estimated £1.5 billion has been invested in the development to create more than 15 new buildings for commercial, residential and leisure use.

Over the last decade Spinningfields has evolved to become the home for over 170 commercial organisations. Many international names in the financial, legal and media industry call Spinningfields home, including anchor tenants such as: Regus, Barclays, DAC Beachcroft, Deloitte, HSBC Bank, Global Radio, Grant Thornton International, Guardian Media Group and Royal Bank of Scotland.

Spinningfields has also established itself as a cultural, retail, leisure and restaurant destination with some of the best independent bars and restaurants, including The Oast House, 20 Stories, The Ivy, Australasia, Tattu and Thaikhun. Spinningfields also has the added attraction of various pop-up bars and restaurants as well as an exciting year-round public events programme.
