6 Great Marlborough Street, Manchester
A plain but nicely proportioned warehouse, though not nice enough to be listed.
Similarities with the neighbouring building (Image]), including decorative corbelling at the top, suggest they were built of a piece.
Now occupied by Swinton Insurance.

Detail of 7 New Wakefield Street, Manchester
Very exuberant entrance to J & J Shaw's former furniture showroom and cabinet warehouse. Oddly, the decorative details depict fruit and flowers (was this for a later owner?). The flowers around the door are Art Nouveau style. No prizes for guessing the date, 1924.
Information partly from http://manchesterhistory.net/manchester/tours/tour7/area7page18.html.
Now partly occupied by the Font bar.
