A brick built warehouse dating to 1836 with two former shipping holes.

Originally called the Rochdale Canal Warehouse, Jackson's Warehouse (also known as Jacksons Warehouse) was built in 1836 on a small arm from the Rochdale Canal in central Manchester. A photograph at The Manchester Local Image Collection http://images.manchester.gov.uk/Display.php?session=pass&irn=14002 shows it still in use as a warehouse as late as 1961. Like other warehouses in central Manchester, it features 'shipping holes' at canal level on its main elevation. These allowed direct access into the building so that canal boats could unload under cover. Jackson’s Warehouse is a Grade II* listed building.( http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-457770-former-rochdale-canal-warehouse- British Listed Buildings). In 2003, it was converted into residential accommodation and a restaurant (http://www.engineering-timelines.com/scripts/engineeringItem.asp?id=1102 Engineering Timelines).

I have no clue who Jackson was, this warehouse was built for the Rochdale canal in 1836. It is a grade II listed building - see https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1254689 It is now smart apartments overlooking the canal basin.

This warehouse in the Ducie Street Basin has now been converted into apartments and shares the site with modern construction.

Looking east. Just beyond the bridge is the tail of Lock No 83. The mill is Brownsfield Mill.

The high lock number gives an idea of the hard work necessary for the boatman contemplating the through navigation of this beautiful waterway to Sowerby Bridge in Yorkshire.
