Lancaster House, Manchester, Grade II* listed building in Whitworth Street, Manchester, England.
Lancaster House is a seven-storey Edwardian Baroque building on Whitworth Street with red brick walls, a granite base, and terracotta details. The facade shows typical features of the era with elaborate details that define this commercial structure.
The building was completed in 1910 for Lloyd's Packing Warehouses Limited and reflects Manchester's role as a leading commercial and industrial hub. It arose during a period of significant economic growth in the city.
The building sits in an area deeply tied to Manchester's textile trade history. Today, visitors can see how the architecture reflects the importance of commerce during this era.
The building is centrally located and easily reached by public transportation. Oxford Road station is nearby, and Manchester Piccadilly station also provides good connections to the area.
An ornamental Art Nouveau wrought iron gate connects the building to the neighbouring India House and features decorative metalwork. This hidden detail shows the craftsmanship that was carefully applied throughout the structure.
