About

Longdendale ward occupies the easternmost portion of Tameside, bordering the Peak District National Park. Its landscape is defined by a chain of five reservoirs, constructed in the 19th century to supply Manchester with water. The settlements, including Hollingworth and Mottram, are situated within the steep valleys of the River Etherow and its tributaries. This area forms a distinct upland corridor, historically shaped by both industry and its vital water supply function.

The ward's character is closely tied to the Longdendale Trail, a popular recreational path following the former Woodhead railway line. This route passes directly through the valley, crossing the reservoirs and offering expansive views of the surrounding moorland. The geography creates a clear transition from the urban areas of Greater Manchester into the open Pennine countryside, with the high ground of Bleaklow visible to the east.
