The splendid Harpurhey Baths, resplendent in red brick and orange and buff terracotta and looking like something out of Hansel and Gretel (the colour has not been enhanced). By Henry Price (City Architect), 1909. Grade II listed. It closed in 2001 and now appears to be an exhibition space for the adjacent Manchester College.
