46 Fountain Street, Manchester
The best building on the street, according to Pevsner. Built as Overseers' and Churchwardens' offices in 1852 by Thomas Worthington, who also added the top two floors in 1858. The windows vary from flat-arched to pedimented to arcaded and, at the top, oeil-de-boeuf. Grade II* listed.
It is now offices.

Another excellent warehouse by Clegg & Knowles, 1879. "A disciplined and satisfying composition in stone", thought Pevsner. It has a very ornate frieze underlining the decorative dormers and chimneys. Grade II listed.

43-47 Spring Gardens, Manchester
No. 47, terminating in a tightly curved corner with Concert Lane (which the listing likens to the prow of a ship), was built in 1881 for the Commercial Union Assurance Society (now occupied by Vivienne Westwood). The architects were Heathcote & Rawle. It has ornate dormers and a turret. Grade II listed.
Nos. 43-45 are at least a notch up the scale of opulence. They were built in 1888-90 for the Lancashire and Yorkshire Bank (now Rosso Restaurant and Bar). The architects were Charles Heathcote & Sons. A monumentally rusticated ground floor and extravagant upper floors garnished with columns, gables and a domed turret (Image]). Grade II listed.
