Looking up on Tasle Street


Elegance on Tasle Street in the form of this post World War I building (1919) which became home to the Liverpool, London and Globe Insurance Company. 

A century before that it was a part of central Manchester that was rife with cholera. This is outlined in Henry Gaunt's 1833 volume The origin and progress of the malignant cholera in Manchester, which is available as an e-book.
