Atherton Buildings name change to Rigby's Buildings edit

Latest comment: 7 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Newspaper articles at the British Newspaper Archive, suggest it was still named Atherton Buildings well into the 1860s and was also used as an auction house. The first reference I can find to "Rigby's Buildings" is the 4th January 1866 edition of the Manchester Courier and Lancashire General Advertiser. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scouserdave (talk • contribs) 16:01, 14 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
