About

Explore Greater Manchester’s oldest church, discover the inspiration behind LS Lowry’s painting ‘Old Church and Steps’, and be inspired by the town’s fabulous array of early 20th century architecture from nationally renowned architects, rich in beautiful, if unexpected, details. 

Each of the 3 trails can be done individually or combined to create one longer route, taking in the town centre, its parks and key sites.
