Manchester Cenotaph is a war memorial in St Peter's Square, Manchester, England. Manchester was late in commissioning a First World War memorial compared with most British towns and cities; the city council did not convene a war memorial committee until 1922. The committee quickly achieved its target of raising £10,000 but finding a suitable location for the monument proved controversial. The preferred site in Albert Square would have required the removal and relocation of other statues and monuments, and was opposed by the city's artistic bodies. The next choice was Piccadilly Gardens, an area already identified for a possible art gallery and library; but in the interests of speedier delivery, the memorial committee settled on St Peter's Square.

  • El cenotafio de Mánchester (en inglés, Manchester Cenotaph)​ en un monumento funerario conmemorativo inglés erigido en la plaza de San Pedro, en Mánchester, diseñado por sir Edwin Lutyens. Construido en piedra de Portland, fue erigido en 1924 en memoria de los que perdieron sus vidas en la Primera Guerra Mundial. Es similar al cenotafio diseñado por Lutyens para Whitehall: «Un pilón con pisos y una figura del soldado desconocido envuelto en un abrigo en la parte superior». El cenotafio se encuentra en un jardín conmemorativo diseñado por L.C. Howitt, que también tiene una cruz de piedra que conmemora la Iglesia de San Pedro, construida en el lugar en 1789-1794 por James Wyatt y demolida en 1907. (es)

  • Il cenotafio di Manchester (in inglese: Manchester Cenotaph) è un monumento funebre commemorativo inglese eretto in piazza St Peter Square a Manchester, progettato da Sir Edwin Lutyens. Costruito in pietra di Portland, fu eretto nel 1924 in memoria di coloro che persero la vita durante la prima guerra mondiale. È simile al cenotafio progettato da Lutyens per Whitehall: "Un pilone con i pavimenti e una figura del soldato sconosciuto avvolta in un cappotto in cima". Il cenotafio è in un giardino memoriale progettato da L.C. Howitt, che ha anche una croce di pietra che commemora la chiesa di San Pietro, costruita sul sito nel 1789-1794 da James Wyatt e demolita nel 1907. (it)
