About Sale
Sale is a town in the Metropolitan Borough of Trafford in Greater Manchester, England.
It is located in North West England, to the south of the River Mersey and southwest of the city of Manchester between Stretford and Altrincham.
Historically part of Cheshire, Sale gained the status of civil parish in 1866. In 1894, as part of the Local Government Act 1894, the parish formed the Sale Urban District. It was expanded in 1930 with the addition of the former area of the Ashton upon Mersey Urban District. In 1935 the expanded district gained the status of municipal borough. Under the Local Government Act 1972, the municipal borough was abolished and its former area was transferred to Greater Manchester to form part of the Metropolitan Borough of Trafford. As Greater Manchester was not adopted as postal county, the Royal Mail included Cheshire as part of Sale addresses until 1996; when postal counties were withdrawn.
