Commercial Property in Rochdale, Greater Manchester & Serviced Offices in Rochdale, Greater Manchester

Rochdale is a large market town and borough in Greater Manchester.  It is located 5.3 miles north of Oldham, 9.8 miles northeast of Manchester and 14 miles southeast of Burnley.  The postcodes for the town of Rochdale are OL11, OL12 and OL16 and the town has a population of circa 96,000.

Rochdale’s recorded history begins with the Domesday Book in 1086 as a division of Salford.  The parish of Rochdale, comprising several townships, was one of the largest ecclesiastical parishes in England at that time.  It was granted a Royal Charter in 1251, which promoted its development into a centre of Northern England’s woollen trade.  It profited from the large amount of textile production in the area and by the early 18th century, had produced an extraordinary number of wealthy merchants.  This was one result of the boom in the area caused by the Industrial Revolution, which led to Rochdale’s rise to borough status and continuously dominant position in the area. Today, Rochdale is primarily a residential town.

Rochdale is well connected to its surrounding towns and villages through Rochdale bus station, which provides regular services connecting to Manchester, Bacup, Plymouth, Friezland, Oldham, Ashton-under-Lyne, Thornham, Stanney Brook, Castleton, Daniel Ford and Cutgate.  Rochdale also has a railway station built by the Manchester and Leeds Railway with trains running to Manchester, Halifax, Bradford, Leeds and Oldham.  The M62 motorway, coming from Sandholme over Belby, Balkholme, Goole, Heck, Knottingley, Ferrybridge, Pontefract, Castlefold, Normanton, Botton Boat, Outwood, Tingley, Bristol, Cleckheaton, Hartshead, Brighouse, Huddersfield and Outlane, lie just south of Rochdale and lead to the M60 encircling Manchester, which connects the town to Hollins, Unsworth, Prestwich, Kearsley, Walkden, Salford, Eccles, Trafford, Sale, Altrincham, Baguley, Cheadle, Didbury, Stockport, Reddish, Hyde, Ashton-under-Lyne, Failsworth and Oldham.  Moreover, Rochdale is located 20 miles from Manchester Airport which is the busiest UK airport outside of London's Heathrow Airport.

The most striking attraction in Rochdale is the Rochdale Town Hall, which is a Victorian-era municipal building that is considered one of the finest in the country. It was designed by William Henry Crossland and opened in 1871. It has a very impressive 240-foot clock tower with a gilded statue of Saint George and the Dragon on top.  Other noticeable sights are the Parish Church of St. Chad from Norman times and the War Memorial with its surrounding gardens.  Furthermore, Rochdale is home to a professional football team, Rochdale A.F.C., and a professional rugby team, the Rochdale Hornets.
