The Monastery Manchester

The Monastery Manchester Manchester’s Modern Day Monastery - A Magnificent Grade II* Listed Heritage Building. Designed by E.W.
(292)

Pugin and built back in 1872 for the Franciscan Order, operated as a consecrated place of worship until 1989, when the building and grounds were sold to property developers for a project that was later abandoned. The Monastery was subsequently stripped, vandalised and left tragically derelict. The Grade II* listed building was brought from the brink of destruction in 1996 by a community of volunte

ers led by Elaine and Paul Griffiths, who bought the ruinous shell for just £1, before proceeding to raise the funds urgently needed to restore this renowned architectural masterpiece. The Monastery is now back where it belongs at the heart of the community.
