Acre Manchester Map

About Acre

Acre, a quiet suburb, sits within the Oldham district of Greater Manchester. It lies 1.7 km north-east of Oldham (from Oldham: bearing 48°T, OS grid SD 936 061). The land here rolls gently, a familiar contour to those who have walked its paths since the days when its fields were more numerous than its rooftops. The houses, a mix of Victorian terraces and later developments, cluster together under a sky that often carries the soft, diffused light characteristic of the North West. Though industry once defined its edges, a more settled, domestic character now prevails, with local shops and parks forming the quiet centres of daily life. The distant hum of the conurbation is a constant, yet Acre retains its own distinct, unhurried presence.
