Looking for something different to do for Christmas?

Posted on Oct 22 in Helen's Blog, News & Blog by Dave

If you’re looking for something different to do in the run up to Christmas then why not take a tour up the famous Clock Tower at Manchester Town Hall?

Previously closed to the public, the historic Clock Tower is being opened up for just 6 weeks from 17^th November through to 22^nd December. This is a unique opportunity to see Manchester and beyond as you will never have seen it before.

The Clock Tower Tours are being lead by professional Manchester Blue and Green Badge Guides, who will not only guide you up the 136 steps to the top, but deliver some insights on this most iconic and historic building along the way.  On the way to the top you’ll be able to visit the bell room, the mechanics room (think of the inside of a watch – only much much bigger!) and stand behind the 4 Clock faces. The tour ends on top of the tower next to Great Abel, the huge 8 ton bell named after Manchester Lord Mayor Abel Heywood. Up here you’ll be able to walk around the Clock Tower and take in the panoramic views across the City, Pennines and the Cheshire Plain. Just don’t forget to bring a camera!

Designed by Liverpudlian architect Alfred Waterhouse and opened in 1877, Manchester Town Hall is regarded as the second most important Grade I listed building in England. Still home today to Manchester City Council, the building houses a number of local government departments whilst the magnificent state rooms on the first floor regularly house events and are among the most popular of wedding venues in the North West! The Town Hall is also a famous ‘Body Double’ for the Houses of Parliament in London.

To book a Clock Tower tour just call 0161 234 4433, or pop into Manchester Town Hall and book at the main reception desk. Tours take place every day at 1pm, 2.30pm, 4pm. 5.30pm and 7pm. Tickets cost just £7.50. (*Children under 12 not allowed and those aged 12-16 must be accompanied by an adult).
