The climbing spires of Manchester Cathedral, the visionary work of the John Rylands Library and the towering turrets of Manchester Town Hall are just three of the great sights that go to make this the most Gothic of cities.

We will also examine the Gothic literature of the period, in particularly that which streamed from the Manchester-hewn, opium-tinted pen of Thomas de Quincey, and the Gothic Manchester that the psychogeography created.
