Churches and Cathedrals in Parrs Wood Lane

"At the top, look inside St Michael’s Church, which commands the Market Place and can be seen across the town. Although the church was almost completely rebuilt at the start of the 20th century it is highly regarded for its two historic chapels. Here you’ll encounter what is considered to be Cheshire’s richest collection of alabaster effigies, produced in the 16th and 17th centuries for the Legh and Savage families."

"This 13th-century church about a mile north of Macclesfield is the fourth church on this site. But what’s unusual is that the third church is still here, out among Medieval yew trees. There’s a Norman Romanesque chapel in the churchyard, dating to the 12th century, with semi-circular door and window arches and weathered but visible tympanum relief and lozenge patterns in the archivolts."

"Only complaint is that I have to drive 20mins each way and the pizza gets cold by the time I get home. 14/04/2021: Without doubt the best Pizza for miles around..... Absolutely fantastic....."

"Originally the Portico Library, the building that houses The Bank dates back to 1806. A pub-style restaurant, The Bank serves up traditional comforting, hearty pub grub. One TripAdvisor traveller said: “We've visited a The Bank a few times for pub lunches - great atmosphere, good pricing, a fine selection of beers and ales and the food is very tasty."

"This modern tapas bar is in neighbouring Salford, but if you find yourself on the west side of Manchester city centre (Castlefield, Spinningfields, Deansgate), it is well worth the 10-15 minute walk across the border and down Chapel Street to Porta’s, housed in a former bank. The rugged, flavour-packed Spanish dishes are underpinned by impeccable sourcing and quiet kitchen ingenuity. Picos de Europa blue cheese with caramelised walnuts and honey is revelatory, while regulars, such as seared, acorn-fed Iberico pork with mojo verde or broccoli with romesco, are reliable bangers."

"Founded by brothers Ben and Joe Wright, there are now three Porta wine and tapas bars spread across the north-west, the latest of which opened in Salford at the end of 2018. The Iberian-influenced tapas – staples of jamón, croquetas and patatas bravas but also slow-roasted ox cheek, pickled walnuts and purple sprouting broccoli with romesco sauce – is complemented by a carefully curated selection of Spanish wines, cava, beer, sherries and vermouth."

"No Location: Deansgate Dining Style: Fast Food Website: https://www.wrapitup.co.uk/manchester-deansgate/ Google Maps Link: https://goo.gl/maps/XGBQkSUgXEa9GdrcA. Nazma’s Note: Great option for lunchtime, the wraps are pretty filling and if you’d prefer you can have your choice in a box rather than a wrap – I always do this cause I make such a mess eating a wrap!"
