55 Faulkner Street, Manchester, Grade II listed building in Chinatown, Manchester, England.
The building at 55 Faulkner Street is a four-story structure of red brick with sandstone accents forming its architectural details. It presents five bays along Nicholas Street and three bays facing Faulkner Street.
Built in 1870 by Clegg and Knowles as a warehouse, the structure showcases Victorian-era construction methods and design. Historic England designated it as Grade II listed in 1994 to protect its historical character.
This building is part of Manchester's Chinatown quarter, contributing to the neighborhood's distinctive character. The red brick facade with stone accents reflects the craftsmanship typical of late 19th century industrial architecture.
The protected status of this building means the exterior cannot be freely altered, preserving its original character for viewing. Access may be limited since it is a private structure, so visitors typically view it from the street.
A major fire in November 2016 caused extensive damage to the structure, prompting comprehensive redevelopment plans. The planned conversion into residential units with ground-floor dining space shows how heritage buildings can gain contemporary uses.
