Thursday Challenge: Architecture- Making a grand entrance at UMIST


The main building at UMIST is, I believe, one of a range of large buildings from the 1890s to 1960s that are up for sale since amalgamation with the University of Manchester. 

This grand entrance is part of what I have been told (by a colleague at Visit Manchester) is the largest brick-built building in Europe, with 8 million bricks used. The delicacy and grandeur of the stained glass is what I'm focussing on today though.

Taking part in The Thursday Challenge, which this week has the theme of "architecture".
