Great times ahead for Winters as work begins to transform iconic building
Winters’ clock will soon chime again as work gets underway to transform this much-loved building into an exciting French restaurant.
The iconic Grade II listed building on Little Underbanks is being restored to its former glory and work will include sensitive repairs and restoration of the building, including the unique, automated clock and figures.
The building has a rich and fascinating history and started life as a watch and clock maker, when the buildings namesake, Jacob Winter moved his company there in 1890. Over the years, the building has operated in many guises, including an optician, jewellers, a restaurant, and most recently as a pub, managed by Manchester brewery Joseph Holt.
