WAREHOUSES AND OFFICES, MANCHESTER - These warehouses and offices have been recently erected in George-street and Dickinson-street, Manchester. They are practically three separate buildings, although forming one block. Each floor is divided into several complete suites of offices and warehouses, tenanted by various shipping firms and merchants, who all have their goods pressed into bales in the basement by powerful hydraulic machinery previous to exportation. The buildings are faced up to the first-floor cornice with Cullingworth stone, and above that height with similar stone dressings and red pressed Ruabon bricks. The buildings have been erected from the designs of Mr. I. R. E. Birkett, ARIBA, Manchester. [Building News 3 April 1896 page 489].
