Manns Music was established 155 years ago in 1854 by Mr Frederick Mann. It is the oldest music shop in Great Britain, and possibly the world, under the same ownership.
Manns is currently run by Tim Mann, the great great grandson of the founder. They moved to their current location in 1891 and have been there ever since. They retailed the first iron framed pianos before the first world war for less than half the cost of a modern day tuning!
