This building is now in the course of erection at the corner of Queen-street with Deansgate, Manchester.

The lower portion of the front is of stone. Above the shop cornice the material is Ruabon red terra-cotta, and the roof is to covered with green tiles. Messrs Neill & Sons are the contractors and Mr Charles Heathcote, the architect.
