Ironwork

Wrought iron work, Midland Hotel, Manchester.

Very observant, been past there on numerous occasions and never seen this shot.

I like this kind of shot, very nice.

On the Lower Mosley St side Stan - just before you reach St Peter's Square.

Amazing detail! I wouldn't be tall enough to take a shot like this

I missed this the other week, apologies.

I like the contrast of the baroque style ironwork and the dull squares of the modern building far behind.

Somewhere in the past I recall reading that the Nazis fancied using the Midland as a central UK base had they won the war, so avoided bombing that part of the city.

I missed it too,a lot of skill to make these,wrought iron is lovely to work with,I tried it a couple of
times,I am surprised that their still allowed to advertise mild steel gates as wrought iron.

Wonderful detail.

Never had my camera with me when I went past this place. The old architecture of Manchester unfortunately is being swept away in a lot of cases but there are some magnificent shots to be got.
