Marlsbro House Hotel building, Newton Street, Manchester, England, M1 1ED

---

This rather incongruous looking checker-board hotel sits on the corner of Hilton Street and Newton Street. In 1844 the site was occupied by the Newton Street Iron Works. By 1888 there was a building that housed the J. Critchley & Co Umbrella Factory on the 1st floor, the H. C. Forshaw Costume Factory on the 2nd and 3rd floors, and a Shirt Factory on the 4th floor. This hotel is probably a redevelopment of the factory that sat here in 1888. Pevsner suggests that the checker-board render hides a red brick building.
