St John Street, Manchester (1)
For all Manchester's embarrassment of Victorian riches, there is startlingly little extant Georgian architecture. I think this is the only complete Georgian street surviving in the city centre. It was built up from the late C18th. The lack of the characteristic Georgian unity is due to building plots being taken up over fifty years or so by different builders. The larger stuccoed house probably dates from the 1840s. Grade II listed.
South side of the street: SJ8397 : St John Street, Manchester (2).
