William Hulme's Grammar School Original Building
William Hulme, founder of the William Hulme Charity, lived 1631–1691 in Hulme Hall, Stockport. In 1881, the Trustees of his charity were empowered to build schools and WHGS was founded in Manchester in 1887.
The original part of the school was designed by A H Davies-Colley in 1886–1887 as a large, high building of red brick and yellow terracotta. Next to it is a hall built in 1910 in the same style.

Demesne Road, Whalley Range, Alexandra Park, end of footpath, facing west
The strong early morning sunlight throws dramatic shadows across the sandstone flagstones. This part of Demesne Road had been fenced off, no doubt for some redevelopment work to take place.

Public footpath, Demesne Road to Princess Road, Whalley Range/Moss Side
This footpath which joins Demesne Road to Princess Road and runs alongside Alexandra Park was under threat of closure in the earlier part of the 20th century. Local people fought a campaign to keep the footpath open and were successful. Had it been closed, a major detour to the south or to the north would have been needed for pedestrians when the park was locked up for the night. The grounds to the right were owned by the YMCA in the second half of the 20th century which had a major building nearby.
