Baguley (/ˈbæɡəli/ BAG-əlee) is a small locality in Wythenshawe, and an electoral ward of the city of Manchester in North West England.Baguley is a derivation of the old English words BACGA - meaning badger, andLEAH - meaning wood (Bacga originally meant 'a bag-shaped animal'). So Baguley means 'badger's wood'. There are still plenty of badgers and woods around the area.Historically in Cheshire, Baguley is mentioned as Bagelei in the Domesday Book of 1086. It was incorporated into Manchester in 1931.
