Our Projects


In Rochdale we’re really proud of our history, which is why we’re doing everything we can to preserve and celebrate it. Rochdale was at the heart of the industrial revolution, and it’s where working men and women started a global cooperative movement that thrives to this day. The town centre is home to stunning architecture, fascinating history and - in its Grade I listed town hall - a building of “rare picturesque beauty.” But it’s also a town centre for today, brimming with life, leisure and culture.
