HistoryEdit
{{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}}
The name Crumpsall derives from old English and means a "crooked piece of land beside a river".<ref name="MAN2002">Template:Usurped Retrieved on 08 September 2009</ref> It is first mentioned in 1291. In 1472, Crumpsall was held in socage by James Radcliffe subject to an annual rent of ten shillings. It later passed to the family of Edward Coke who held it until 1789 when it was divided. One part was sold to Thomas Egerton, 1st Earl of Wilton and another, 188 acres, to William Marsden of Liverpool. Marsden's portion was divided into three farms: Boardman's Tenement, Pendleton Tenement and Oldham's Tenement and a dyeworks known as Holland's Tenement. Oldham's Tenement, 45 acres, was sold to the Guardians of the Poor of Manchester in 1855 as a site for the new workhouse, later known as Springfield Hospital. Pendleton Tenement was bought by the Delaunay family and later sold to the Prestwich Poor law union as the site for a workhouse.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>
Crumpsall was rural in character during the early part of the 19th century, however, the necessity to house Manchester's growing population of mill workers saw the area become more urbanised. Crumpsall was incorporated into the city of Manchester in 1890.<ref name="MAN2002"/>
Crumpsall Hall was the seat of the Chethams and subsequently passed to the Waklyns. The Manchester workhouse was built after the formation of the Poor Law Unions in 1837.<ref>Template:Citation</ref>
The Co-operative Wholesale Society opened the Crumpsall Biscuit Works in Lower Crumpsall around 1873.<ref>Template:Citation</ref>
Crumpsall is the location of North Manchester General Hospital. This was previously three hospitals: Crumpsall Hospital (a general hospital), Springfield Hospital (a psychiatric hospital) and Delaunay's Hospital (a geriatric hospital).
In January 2003 Detective Constable Stephen Oake, a Greater Manchester Police officer, was fatally stabbed whilst arresting a suspected terrorist in a house on Crumpsall Lane.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
GovernanceEdit
Template:Further Crumpsall was formerly a township in the parish of Manchester,<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> in the Salford hundred in the historic county of Lancashire. It was part of the Manchester Poor Law Union (PLU) between 1841 and 1850, the Prestwich PLU from 1850 to 1915, and again in the Manchester PLU from 1915 to 1930. In 1854 a Local Board of Health was established for the area of the township. In 1866 Crumpsall became a separate civil parish, in 1890 it was incorporated into County Borough of Manchester,<ref name="GM Gazetteer C">Template:Citation</ref> on 26 March 1896 the parish was abolished to form North Manchester.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In 1891 the parish had a population of 10,371.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
