St. John Street
St. John Street is the only surviving
Georgian terraced street in central Manchester, and it
lies at the heart of a conservation area. It received a
facelift in 1963 that was partially funded by the City
Council. The goal was to re-establish a degree of
consistency in regards to the appearance of the
buildings.
24 St. John Street was built in the mid
19th century and it is clearly different from its
neighbours in that it is higher and more elaborately
detailed.
Today St. John Street is
home to doctors' consulting rooms and legal chambers.
Each of the houses has brass plaques identifying their
occupants.
