The Edge Manchester Map

About The Edge

The Edge, a quiet corner of Oldham, Manchester, holds a character all its own. It lies 2.3 km south of Chadderton (from Chadderton: bearing 176°T, OS grid SD 910 030), and is situated north of Woodhouses village. Here, the land, though tamed by habitation, still hints at its wilder origins, with a subtle rise and fall that catches the changing light of the North West sky. The air often carries a faint, earthy scent, a reminder of the fields that once dominated this landscape before the houses took root. A certain quietude prevails, a gentle hum of daily life that seems to absorb the distant sounds of the wider conurbation. The residential streets, often lined with mature trees, offer a sense of enduring solidity, a feeling that these homes have settled into the earth with a quiet permanence.
