Abandoned Ruined Mansion Moss Side Manchester Abandoned Places

IN THIS VIDEO I TAKE YOU ON A EXPLORE OF THE ABANDONED RUINED MANSION IN MOSS SIDE MANCHESTER.

HISTORY

I have no idea to what extent this was a happy home or how far the people who lived there were contented and at peace.

In fact at present I have only been able to uncover a few names and those are confined to around 1911 but they do offer up a story.

At the end of 1910 when Slater’s street directory was being compiled it listed a Mr Thomas Porter, director and Herbert Stewart Lysons accountant at the property.

Mr Porter had been there by 1897 and with a bit of digging we should be able to push that back to sometime earlier in the 1890s, which in turn may help date Inglewood which was the name of the house.

It doesn’t appear on the 1894 OS so will have been still relatively new when the two were recorded on the 1901 census along with Mrs Porter and two servants.

A decade earlier and Mr Lysons was living at home in Pendlebury with his father who was a “Colliery Stores manager” and he at 19 described a “Colliery Surface labourer”.

But young Herbert was on a path of self improvement.

By 1901 when he was living with his uncle Mr Porter at Desmene Road he had become a chartered accountant.

Mr and Mrs Lysons will have continued to pass the house and may have wondered what went on behind it door after they had left.

And so might Herbert’s sister who would have known the house.

She had spent most of her adult life in Stockport but lived out her final years on Chandos Road and so she might too have wandered past the property perhaps on a visit to Alexandra Park.

And here I shall stop before I do indeed slide in to romantic speculation leaving only to reflect finally on the fate of the house.
