The Old Parsonage
Heritage Open Day: Home of Fletcher Moss Alderman, philanthropist, JP and author. The house is now a community space. A rare stained glass sundial window has been installed in the building. Original parts of this magnificent house probably date back to the mid-sixteenth century with fine extensions added between 1820 and 1830.
Its most famous owner was Fletcher Moss, JP, Alderman, philanthropist and author, who left the building, gardens and other land to Manchester Corporation in 1919. After a long life as a Museum and Art Gallery it was then turned into offices. In September 2012 the building was opened as a community hub by the Didsbury Parsonage Trust who acquired it on a lease from Manchester City Council and raised over £160,000 for renovation.
Books, cards and other items on sale. Open from 10.00 to 17.00 on Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th and Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st. Disabled access.
