Annotation	This paper reports on a current programme, the Hive in the Cliff, geared toward initiating social and economic renewal in Broughton, Salford, through culturally led regeneration and conservation. Case studies examined included a focus on activities and relationships between individuals at different stages of the life course, but they were not branded as intergenerational activities. Intergenerational relations outlined are implicit outcomes of cultural activities in which knowledge about people, life stories, and evolution of a community are shared and preserved between and across generations. The focus on shared spaces and places shows how intergenerational solidarity may be made knowable through activities involving different generations. (JL).
