Doesn't the Tourist office face the other way, back toward Piccadilly rather than Peter's Field? Important to some, obviously not important to the likes of the Manchester council - look at the hassle regarding the plaque - or even Local Education Authorities - I don't know of anyone that was actually taught about this at school.

I started doing a sewing piece about Peterloo last year. I'm going to have to get around to finishing it.

I last found it on Thursday. Although, admittedly, it was were I last left it.

I suspect that train drivers find it difficult - but by car it's practically impossible!

Yet, buses, trains, trams and coaches take you straight to Piccadilly!
