Oddfellows House -
Deansgate![]() This
Grade II Listed building on Deansgate, between Hardman
Street and Atkinson Street, is now known as Oddfellows
House (the image above was taken in 2015). The
name reflects the fact that it recently became home to
the
The Independent
Order of Oddfellows Manchester Unity Friendly Society.
Prior to this, the building underwent an extensive
refurbishment and in addition to providing office space
to the Oddfellows it is also home to two restaurants
located at opposite ends of the building.
![]() Over
the years Oddfellows House had had a number of
functions. If you look carefully beneath the
name over the door to 184 Deansgate, you will see that
the stone looks dirty. In fact this is what
remains of its previous title "Inland Revenue", which
you can see in an earlier image shown below.
![]() The building also contains 186 Deansgate which was once home to the High Court Registry. ![]() Below is an aerial view of the building taken in May of 1946. ![]() ![]() |
