Lancaster House, Manchester
Lancaster House in Whitworth Street, Manchester, England, was a packing and shipping warehouse built between 1905 and 1910 for Lloyd's Packing Warehouses Limited, which had, by merger, become the dominant commercial packing company in early-twentieth-century Manchester. It is in the favoured Edwardian Baroque style and constructed of red brick and orange terracotta.〔The Buildings of England: Lancashire-Manchester and the South East, page 335〕 It is a Grade II
* listed building as of 3 October 1974.
The building was designed by Harry S. Fairhurst, who had become "the leading expert in the design of these advanced warehouses".〔Pevsner Architectural Guides: Manchester, page 207〕 Fairhurst was also responsible for Bridgewater House opposite, the neighbouring India House〔The Buildings of England: Lancashire-Manchester and the South East, page 335〕 and, perhaps, Asia House, although that building has also been attributed to I.R.E. Birkett.
Fairhurst's huge buildings are "steel-framed and built to high-quality fireproof specifications".〔Pevsner Architectural Guides: Manchester, page 207〕
