Reilly called \"the most monumental neo-Classical building in Manchester\"— a Grade II listed masterpiece designed by Percy Scott Worthington and completed in 1929 as the East Lancashire Freemasons headquarters. The building\'s eleven function rooms preserve extraordinary period features while offering versatile spaces for weddings, corporate events, and private dining.Our spaces range from intimate, oak-panelled rooms for gatherings of a few dozen to grand ballrooms and rooftop terraces that accommodate up to 500 guests in complete celebration.
