EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of the Assize Courts in Manchester, circa 1910. The imposing facade of this historic court house dominates the scene, standing tall with its Neo-Gothic architecture designed by Alfred Waterhouse. Its intricate details and majestic presence evoke a sense of awe and reverence. Located in Stangeways, these Law Courts were once a symbol of justice and order in the city. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, transporting us back to a time when legal proceedings unfolded within these walls. The image offers a glimpse into daily life on the bustling streets surrounding the courthouse. A busy city road stretches out before it, lined with pedestrians going about their business. This snapshot freezes a moment in time, preserving not only architectural beauty but also capturing an Edwardian atmosphere that is both nostalgic and intriguing. Although demolished in the 1950s, this photograph serves as a reminder of Manchester's rich history and architectural heritage. It is now part of a private collection but continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm.
