Until the 1980s Peel Green was dominated by heavy industry, with engine builder L Gardner & Sons on Hardy Street and the Regent Tyre and Rubber Co, at the Enterprise Works on the corner of Green Street and Clifford Street. These are now closed. With the loss of its industrial base, Peel Green is seeking new types of investment to aid in the renewal of the area.During 2003, the Brookhouse Estate saw curfews imposed on under 16s, a substantial police presence and a security camera erected outside the local shops in Brookhouse Avenue in an effort to tackle the crime rate.
Salford City Academy, formerly Canon Williamson Church of England High School, is on the Brookhouse Estate. After substantial redevelopment, the school opened as an academy in September 2006. The school's specialisms are sport and business and enterprise. A separate sixth form centre opened in September 2007 at a cost of £1.8 million. Other schools in the area include St Patrick's [Roman Catholic High School].
