Add your own review!

Overview

The book is intended to raise awareness of the wide range and varied character of the historic buildings which constitute the Northern Quarter's townscape, and the forces and trends which have contributed to its appearance. It will also show how the area has evolved over the last two and a half centuries, forming the historic backdrop to everyday life in a particularly vibrant and culturally distinctive quarter of the city. The book will have a broad appeal, both to the established urban community and to those with an interest in the city of Manchester and its buildings.
