Manchester, Victoria Hotel 1889

More about this scene
The Frith photographer is standing outside the Cathedral and looking back at the Victoria Buildings and its Hotel. Cromwell's statue is the very middle of our picture: for many years it was nicknamed 'the pedestrian's friend', as it gave a refuge to people crossing the busy street. The third Royal Exchange Building is peeping through the murk on the left of our picture, and Sinclairs Oyster Bar is just in front of it. Deansgate goes off to the right, and Victoria Street to the left.
