About

Chadderton North is a residential district situated in the northern part of the Oldham borough. The area is primarily composed of housing, with a mix of interwar and post-war terraced and semi-detached homes. Its layout is defined by several main roads that provide connections to Oldham town centre and neighbouring Royton. Local amenities are focused along these thoroughfares, serving the everyday needs of the community. The terrain includes gentle slopes with views towards the Pennine foothills to the east.

The area is anchored by the Chadderton Wellbeing Centre, a modern facility combining health services and a library. A significant local feature is the former site of the Ferranti engineering works, which historically shaped much of the area's employment. Open green space is provided by the playing fields of the Oasis Academy and smaller recreational grounds. The Rochdale Canal passes along its western edge, offering a linear route for walking and cycling away from the main roads.
