A mysterious “fishy” smell has returned to Manchester.

New reports of the unpleasant odour filling the air have come from across the city and beyond.

Social media was buzzing with comments on Monday about the smell coming from parts of north, east and south Manchester.

Darren Cadd posted on his Twitter account: “Smell was rife in Failsworth last night”

Jo evens added: “oh my gosh it’s shocking all round edge lane droylsden, yuk!”

Faizan tweeted: “Yep around SportCity and up to Newton Heath, been around for at least a week that smell I’d say.”

But the air around south Manchester was also filled with the odd smell.

Joe Madigan added: “it was lurking around Fallowfield too!”

And Matt Jefferies said: “Fishy smell was very strong in Cheadle Hulme this morning!”

In December last year, the M.E.N. reported how dozens of residents in Rochdale and Oldham were complaining of a mystery smell.

People living in the towns took to social media after an unpleasant aroma - described as ‘fishy’ - wafted into the area.
