Former Nicholls Hospital including gymnasium, governor's house, stone setted and flagged forecourt, boundary walls and gates, stone gate piers on Ford Street and Devonshire Street, and two granite memorials in the forecourt, Gothic Revival hospital building and memorials in Ardwick, England
The former Nicholls Hospital features a central tower reaching 130 feet, brick construction with cavity walls, and stone mullions adorning square-headed windows.
Built in 1879 by architect Thomas Worthington, the hospital was funded through Alderman Benjamin Nicholls's bequest to honor his son John Ashton Nicholls.
The building transformed from a healthcare facility to an educational institution, becoming part of Manchester College's sixth-form campus through various adaptations.
Located at the intersection of Hyde Road and Devonshire Street, the Grade II listed complex includes a gymnasium, governor's house, and stone-paved forecourt.
Two granite memorials stand in the forecourt, commemorating the institution's mission to improve living conditions for Manchester's working-class residents.
