Transfer from Gatwick Airport to Manchester
A great part of Manchester was built by the cotton barons of the Georgian era. They constructed many buildings such as art galleries, public parks and buildings. Meanwhile, factory workers living were in more difficult conditions, crowded into filthy slums with nasty smells. Cheap fabrics that came from the global economic recession slowed the economy of Manchester in the late twentieth century. Bombing during the Second World War have left huge holes inside the town, but the city changed when the slums were demolished and the free spaces left after the war were cleaned. Although the town houses a great number of impressive buildings, two of its most beautiful displays are John Ryland’s Library, St Ann’s Church and The Britons Protection.
The Briton’s Protection is located on the same place as it was in 1806, at the corner of Great Bridgewater Street and Lower Moseley Street. It is famous for its collection of beverages like whiskey – over 200 varieties. The pub was voted as the “Best Pub in Manchester” by members of the Pride of Manchester Organization in the periods 2008-2009 and 2009-2010. Briton’s Protection is the perfect place to taste the life of Manchester.
John Ryland’s Library
Built in the late nineteenth century, John Ryland’s Library is considered one of the most beautiful libraries in the world. The architecture is part of the Gothic revival style(it looks like a cathedral) and was built by Enriqueta Augustina Ryland in the 1890s.
It has one of the most import collection of manuscripts in the world, with over 4 million books and newspapers, 41,000 electronic journals and 500,000 electronic books.
St.Ann’s Church
St. Ann is the oldest classical building in Manchester. It was built in 1712 and the interior has a gallery supported by Tuscan columns. It is dedicated to Lady Ann Bland which offered the money for the construction of this church in the eighteenth century.
