Summary

In the centre of the image is a classical style building: this is the 'Concert Hall' in Manchester. The front of the building can be seen. It has six columns, which hold up a triangular pediument. Under this can be seen three entrances, a large one in the middle, with a smaller one either side of it. A man and three women walk on the pavement to the left, which is overshadowed by a mostly unseen building that is also fronted by columns. In the foreground are two boys with a dog.
