'Abandoned' Victorian warehouse in city centre must be saved says heritage group
It is still standing despite the arrival of the Metrolink behind and ever encroaching new tower blocks. Nearby is the Printworks entertainment palace - once a real printworks - dubbed 'The Fleet Street of the North'.
SAVE says: "You would be forgiven for thinking the building is abandoned and derelict. It sits just behind the Printworks and is known for its old metal sign "WITHY GROVE STORES" on its east elevation. Today, the ground floor is currently occupied by Withy Grove Office Interiors, which specialises in safes and reconditioned office furniture but the rest of the building appears empty and in poor condition.
"There appears to be salt damage to the brickwork on the upper floors, as well as foliage growing out of the shopfront on the Dantzic Street frontage. As a survivor of Manchester's Victorian industrial heritage, the warehouse deserves to be protected and restored to a more secure condition."
