Medieval Manchester - Medieval Secrets Inside a Modern City

Manchester is famous for its industrial skyline, but beneath the glass towers lies a surprisingly intact medieval quarter. In this walk‑through I explore the city’s hidden past—from the resilient Old Wellington Inn and Sinclair’s Oyster Bar, both rescued from war‑time destruction, to the soaring nave of Manchester Cathedral, home to the original “Minstrel Angels” and a rare 11th‑century Angel Stone. We’ll also step inside Chetham’s Library, the world’s oldest public library, where Karl Marx once studied beside Friedrich Engels and where the legendary Dr. John Dee left his mark. Join me on a sunny bank‑holiday stroll as ancient timber frames stand shoulder‑to‑shoulder with modern high‑rises, reminding us that Manchester’s story is still being written.
