Hulme Hall is a university hall of residence in Rusholme, Manchester, England, 1.5 miles south of Manchester city centre, housing 300 students from the University of Manchester. The facilities include a purpose-built lecture theatre with 300 seats (John Hartshorne Centre), the Old Dining Hall, the Library, the Chapel, the Senior Common Room and the Seminar Room. It is a Grade II listed building. It should not be confused with the historic Hulme Hall in Hulme, Manchester, on the right bank of the River Irwell, which has been demolished. The hall is one of the oldest in Manchester: it was founded in association with Owens College. It was named after the Lancashire lawyer and landowner William Hulme whose Hulme Trust funded the Hall's foundation. Houldsworth Hall, part of the Hulme Hall complex of buildings, was constructed in 1907 (Edwardian), whereas most of the local buildings are Victorian, for example the Anglican parish church (St John Chrysostom) which was built in 1874 - 1877. Local student attractions include the Whitworth Art Gallery and the Curry Mile on Wilmslow Road. Birley, another building of residence has recently been seen as the most influential and important building in Hulme Hall. Notable people to have lived in this building are Theo Gerin of the house of Luxembourg and Samuel Spence the renowned composer and physicist. In recent years, there has been a feud between the Birley building and Houldsworth building over superiority, which came to a bubbling point when, in December 2020, house Birley stole the Hulme Hall Christmas tree and placed it inside Houldsworth, framing them, in what is now known as 'The Great Christmas Tree Heist'. Tensions were high between the two houses ever since then, however, after a party in Houldsworth that Birley invaded, the beef was squashed and they agreed to live amicably from then on. It is still unknown whether mind-altering substances helped aid this sudden forgiveness from both sides.

The poem is known as "Hardy's Well", after the name of the pub and was painted onto the wall by the Landlady at the time Melanie Pemberton Sissay went on to display poetry UK-wide.It was a popular venue for University of Manchester students, and of Manchester City F.C. fans when the club was based at Maine Road.It is owned by Enterprise Inns. It was listed as an Asset of community value in 2015 as a result of an application by the Rusholme & Fallowfield Civic Society. The pub closed in July 2016, and is at risk of being demolished. A planning application by Eamar Development to turn it into flats and shops was submitted in 2018, which would see the shell of the pub incorporated into a larger building, with the poem on the wall as part of the inside of the foyer as well as replicated on the new building's outside wall. The new building would be 6 storeys tall, and contain 62 flats with shops on the ground floor.
