King Street
Francis Frith 07/10/1822 - 25/02/1898
Summary
A Manchester street view, looking up King Street from the Cross Street end. This is a shopping street: hats for sale are visible through plate glass windows to the left, and four women look intently into a window on the right. A blurred male figure in a top hat is in the centre foreground. Carriages can be seen further up the street, and people pass by on the pavements.
