Midland Hotel….as shot through the front entrance Portico to Manchester’s Central Library.
Peter Street, Manchester.
The Midland Hotel was designed by Charles Trubshaw and constructed for the Midland Railway Company between 1898 and 1903. This is where Charles Stewart Rolls met with Frederick Henry Royce, the meeting led to the formation of Rolls-Royce Limited in 1904. During the Second World War it was alleged that Adolf Hitler had a keen interest in the hotel as a possible Nazi headquarters in Britain; American intelligence speculated the area around Manchester Town Hall was spared bombing so as not to destroy the hotel which is situated just around the corner.
