Description

No. 12 Mosley Street is a building in Manchester that dates from around 1870 to 1880 and has been altered over time. It features an iron frame with sandstone ashlar cladding and a slate roof. The building has a rectangular plan on a corner site, with a canted right-hand corner, and is designed in an eclectic Gothic style. It stands three storeys tall with an attic and has a three-bay facade plus the canted corner. The facade includes chamfered pilasters, a cornice above the ground floor, a sill-band at the second floor, and a bracketed eaves cornice. The balustraded parapets flank the attic dormer. The ground floor has been entirely altered, while the upper floors feature tall mullioned windows with three, two, and two lights, all sashed without glazing bars. The second-floor windows have round-headed lights, and there are matching single-light windows at the corner. The tall gabled dormer has carried-up pilasters that finish as cylindrical chimneys, a pedimented gable with carving and an apex finial, and two-light sashed windows. Additionally, there are flat-roofed dormers behind the parapet. The building is included for its group value.
