215-219 Chester Road, Manchester
A group of three early C19th houses. They are not listed which might be because beyond the facades little of the original fabric survives.
They were offices, known as St George's House, but have since fallen into disuse and been boarded up (2023).

Barrack Street, Manchester
One of few reminders of Hulme Barracks, built in 1817 and demolished about a century later - these were built in the early C20th for NCOs. Contrary to appearances they are flats, split between ground and first floors, with access via paired doors, "an unusual configuration in Manchester, though common in Tyneside". Similar houses survive on the parallel St George's Avenue.

Chester Road, St George's
215-219 Chester Road is the offices of Charted Accountants Beever and Struthers http://www.beeverstruthers.co.uk/aboutus Their address is listed as St George's House - not to be confused with St George's House, Peter Street
Image However the name above the door is St George's Court which appears to be the name also given to one of the high-rise blocks of apartments on Angela Street which is just visible in the background.
