Stone Edge continues its specialist stonemasonry work on the Manchester ‘Our Town Hall’ restoration, a landmark heritage project ensuring the longevity of this historic building. Appointed by Lendlease, we have been on-site since November 2019, contributing as the longest-serving contractor within the six-year programme.

Throughout the project, we have reached a number of key milestones including the reinstallation of the Victorian chimneys, lightwells, and main facades using a 300-ton mobile crane from John Sutch Cranes Ltd. Our local team of skilled stonemasons and apprentices take great pride in their role in this once-in-a-lifetime restoration.

Stone Edge continues to support the project’s social value initiatives, employing a local workforce and training six apprentices, some of whom have completed their entire stonemasonry apprenticeships on this site. Our supply partnership with Johnsons Wellfield ensures high-quality quarry blocks for the restoration.
