Wythenshawe welcomes back its 'iconic' Tudor hall six years after devastating arson
There were cheers and applause in Wythenshawe today as the town welcomed back its ‘iconic’ Tudor Hall.
“After exceptional forensic conservation work, the building is a joy to experience, and the skill and sensitivity of the restoration work has, if anything, added new levels of interest to this outstanding building. The building has been lovingly cared for in such a way that it is often impossible to tell which parts of the fabric of the structure survived the inferno, and which have been created to fill a gap. It features the family crest of the Tattons, featuring a greyhound, and a blue plaque for the Simon family, who bought the building for the public good in 1926.
