Manchester

Bradburn, Jean (Local historian)2017
Book
Portraying one of England's finest cities, this illustrated book provides a nostalgic look at Manchester's past and highlights the special character of some of its most important historic sites. The photographs are taken from the unique Historic England Archive, the nation's record of 12 million photographs, drawings and publications, ranging from the 1850s and the earliest days of photography up to the present day. The authors show the city as it once was, from its streets, squares and parks to its mills, factories and warehouses. It is a city of strong Victorian character, combining 19th-century grandeur and 21st century vibrancy.
