Chetham's (Library and School of Music)
Chetham's is the most complete late-medieval residential complex to survive in the north west of England. Situated on a sandstone outcrop at the confluence of the Rivers Irwell and Irk, the buildings occupy the site of the manor house of Manchester, which, together with the parish church (now the Cathedral) formed the core of the medieval town.
