BREAKING NEWS – Manchester Collapse

DemolitionNews has received reports of what appears to be a scaffold or partial building collapse in Manchester City Centre this afternoon.

We were alerted by a news report on Manchester Evening News.

That report says the building involved is understood to be Alberton House; it’s off Bridge Street in the city centre, but spans around to St Mary’s Parsonage.

Reports suggest one side of the building came down, sending scaffolding into the River Irwell beside it.

DemolitionNews covered the incident in a live broadcast.
