THE distinctive Temple in Heaton Park at Prestwich has been restored to provide a summer studio for local artists.
The 18th Century Grade II listed building has undergone major refurbishment as part of £6million worth of work on the park. Built at the City of Manchester's highest point, the temple had suffered from vandalism, arson and structural decay..
Although well used by the people of Prestwich, the park is owned and maintained by Manchester City Council.
