The new Assize Courts at Manchester, 1864. Creator: Mason Jackson
The new Assize Courts at Manchester, 1864. View of the front of...that noble building which has lately been erected in the Cheetham Hill-road, Manchester, for the Assize business of the Salford Hundred and neighbouring districts of Lancashire...[The architect, ] Mr. A. Waterhouse, of New-street, Spring-gardens...[has] produced what is, beyond all comparison, the finest structure ever raised in England for a similar purpose. An eminent critic has recently declared that "this building - the great work of Northern England - will mark an epoch in the history of the architecture of our age, proving, as it does - more completely than the houses of Parliament, because designed at a time of riper experience and in a purer style - that modern administrative uses and mediaeval architecture fit well together". From "Illustrated London News", 1864

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the grandeur of the new Assize Courts at Manchester, built in 1864 by architect Alfred Waterhouse. The intricate Gothic Revival architecture of the building is truly a sight to behold, with its towering bell tower and impressive belfry. As described in the "Illustrated London News" of the time, this structure was hailed as a masterpiece that would mark an epoch in architectural history.
The fusion of modern administrative needs with medieval design elements is seamlessly executed in this noble building, which was deemed by critics to be the finest ever raised in England for such a purpose. The attention to detail and craftsmanship evident in every aspect of its construction speaks volumes about the skill and vision of both Waterhouse and builder Mason Jackson.
As you gaze upon this engraving, you can almost feel yourself transported back to Victorian England, standing before this symbol of justice and authority. It serves as a reminder not only of our architectural heritage but also of the enduring legacy left behind by those who sought to create something truly remarkable.
