John Dalton's House in Faulkner Street, Manchester

Summary

A view of the former house of Manchester scientist John Dalton (1766-1844). We see a Georgian town house from across the street, with the side of a house on Chain Street in the left foreground. The front door of Dalton's residence can be seen, which is up three steps. Around the door are columns, supporting a small triangular porch. The house has three storeys and a basement. The artist has not delineated the neighbouring house.
