About New Houses

New Houses, a quiet hamlet in the Oldham district, breathes the crisp air of the Pennine fringes. It lies 2.3 km east-north-east of Lees (from Lees: bearing 60°T, OS grid SD 973 057), and is situated east-south-east of Scouthead village. The landscape here, a subtle tapestry of rolling fields and distant moorland, holds a particular quality of light, especially in the late afternoon when it softens the harsh lines of industry and lends a contemplative glow to the stone-built houses. Though its origins are humble, New Houses carries the quiet resilience of a place that has seen its share of changing fortunes, a subtle echo of the region's industrial past. The surrounding countryside, often veiled in a fine mist, offers a sense of quietude, a place where the sky feels vast and the earth solid beneath one's feet.
