Wythenshawe Hall is to reopen for the first time since an arson attack caused extensive fire damage to the timber-framed Grade II listed building six years ago.
In the early hours of March 15, 2016, an arsonist intentionally set five separate fires at the 16th century Tudor mansion, causing damage to the entrance hall, the roof, the first and second floors and destroying the bell tower in the process.
More than 50 firefighters spent two days bringing the blaze under control, which was estimated to have caused £5.2 million worth of damage. Jeremy Taylor was later found guilty of the attack and jailed for four-and-a-half years.
