Just remembered I lived for a while at no 325 Oxford Rd (not in 1841  ;D ;D) so if numbers stayed roughly the same, I reckon your William's place would be about where the Manchester University Kilburn Building is now

not much point in paying a visit then. I was hoping for a picture. I know Manchester, like most of our cities, has been practically rebuilt since the sixties, but small pockets have remained and I hoped it may still be standing. Thanks for your help everyone.
