City centre hotel for ducks


This canalside duck house and dovecote would be a delight to behold if walking along the towpath in the countryside. Even more impressive then that it is located in the heart of Manchester city centre, in the grounds of the Bridgewater Bank Apartments. There is also at least one other such duck house further along the canal.

    They both look great. No duck houses in Leeds city centre, though we do have a few ducks and Canada Geese too. Paul at Leeds in Yorkshire daily photography

    Cool colors too. This is a good idea, if you can keep the population down.

    Great idea Chrissy, even a duck needs shelter now and then!!

    I remember seeing some ducks along the Rochdale canal just north of Piccadilly a year or so ago.

    That's kind of cool in a twee sort of way! Do they actually use it?

    I have seen some nesting in one of the other duck houses further along this canal, so they do get used by some ducks.
