Rochdale's rich history traces back to the Domesday Book of 1086 when it was known as 'Recedham Manor'. It earned itself a royal charter by 1251, signifying its growing importance. The town flourished during the 19th century as it became a hub for textile manufacturing during the Industrial Revolution, transitioning from a significant woolen trade in the 18th century to cotton manufacturing.

Despite a decline in its textile industry by the mid-20th century, Rochdale has not lost its prominence. It boasts heritage landmarks such as the Rochdale Town Hall, regarded as one of the country's finest municipal buildings, and the Cooperative Shop on Toad Lane, a testament to its pioneering spirit. With its diverse population and a multitude of industries and sectors, Rochdale presents a unique blend of history and modernity.

When planning your visit, consider that Rochdale shows its radiant best during the summer months of June, July, and August.
