About

Littleborough North & Calderbrook lies on the western edge of the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale, bordering the Pennine uplands. The area encompasses a mix of residential streets, local retail on Church Street, and significant green spaces like Hollingworth Lake. The landscape is defined by the Rochdale Canal and the foothills of Blackstone Edge, which provide a clear transition from town to moorland.

The community is served by Littleborough railway station on the Calder Valley line. A notable feature is the series of historic canal locks and the adjacent Lake Bank area, which has long been a destination for walking and water-based recreation. Housing ranges from Victorian terraces to more modern developments, with Calderbrook itself being a smaller settlement set closer to the open countryside.
