Watts Warehouse

Texte de Wikipédia en anglais, en attente de traduction.

The Britannia Hotel (formerly Watts Warehouse) is a Grade II* listed Victorian building on Portland Street in Manchester, England. Completed in 1856 as a textile warehouse for the wholesale drapery firm S. & J. Watts, it was then the largest single‑occupancy warehouse in the city. The building is noted for its eclectic palazzo‑style architecture and its First World War memorial by Charles Sargeant Jagger. After falling out of use in the later 20th century, it was converted into a hotel, opening in 1982 as part of the Britannia Hotels chain.
