Society of Friends Meeting House
This Quakers meeting house is on Mount St in Manchester City centre. This information is from the quaker's web site:-
The Meeting House was designed by Richard Lane, a Quaker Architect, whose pupil was Alfred Waterhouse (himself a Manchester Friend) who went on to build such famous buildings as the Manchester Town Hall, Manchester University and the Natural History Museum in South Kensington. The cost of the building, £7,600, was raised by subscription from local Quakers, one of whom was John Dalton, the famous chemist and discoverer of atomic theory who worshipped here for many years.
The new Meeting House was built with a stone façade in the neo-classical style. The design for the frontage is, perhaps surprisingly for a Quaker Meeting House, based on the front of the Temple of Ilissus. (1828)
