Location
Flixton village, originally founded by a Viking called
'Flikke', has previously been spelt as Fleece-Town, Fflxton, Fluxton and Flyxton. It is a small
suburb 6 miles from the centre of Manchester in the Borough of Trafford.
The Band has been a part of Flixton's history since 1877. For more information on
the history of the band click here
Due to the generous
support of Trafford Metropolitan Borough Council, Flixton Band now rehearses in
part of the former Flixton Library.
Extensive building work has been carried
out to accommodate the band.
The location of the new home has a historical
significance, as it is close to the site of the band's original home in 1877. |
