13-17 Chapel Walks, Manchester
Aka Tudor House. A rare example of half-timbering in the city centre. Tudor is inaccurate, by a factor of about 350 years. By Barker & Ellis, 1889.
Now a bar and restaurant, Bacchanalia, which I expect gets very lively on a Friday or Saturday night.

Commercial Buildings, Cross Street, Manchester
Pevsner describes it as "lacklustre" and ascribes this to the retirement of Edward Walters from the designers Walters, Barker & Ellis. Built c1868. "The interest is in the use of stone facing instead of brick and the introduction of Continental Gothic motifs, with ranks of grouped windows and variation in the form taken by the window heads." Over the next few decades countless buildings across the country would employ similar motifs.
Still shops at street level, offices above. The red brick round the corner looks modern.

Lowry's Local
A Manchester institution at ground level (and below), the pub and restaurant called "Sams Chop House", which makes much of its history as the favoured watering hole of artist L S Lowry. They have a lifesize bronze of him at the bar.
The building also houses a rather superior Thai restaurant, and offices above.
This is a grade II listed building, called there "Princes Chambers". See https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1283063 . See also Image
