About

Tottington ward lies in the northwestern part of the Borough of Bury, bordered by open countryside and the Irwell Valley. The area encompasses the historic village centre of Tottington itself, along with several smaller suburban settlements and residential streets. Its landscape includes urban areas transitioning into green fields and wooded slopes, with local geography shaped by the foothills of the West Pennine Moors.

The community is served by local shops and services along Market Street. A notable local landmark is the parish church of St. Anne, situated on a prominent hilltop overlooking the area. The ward maintains a distinct identity separate from the more urban centres of Bury, with recreational paths like the Kirklees Trail following old railway lines through its outskirts.
