Horwich was a railway town, home to the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway’s locomotive works, and much of its terraced housing was built for the works’ employees. Today the old works site is being redeveloped, and the Middlebrook retail and leisure park sits next to the motorway.

BL6 covers Horwich, Blackrod and Lostock. West Pennine Moors rise behind the town, with Rivington Pike and its tower above it.

Railway terraces and new estates

Central Horwich has a lot of terraced housing with on-street parking. Newer estates on the edges of town have drives. Collection works the same way in both.

Up towards Rivington

Some homes are on steep roads or lanes towards the moors. Tell the buyer if the car is on a slope, particularly if it does not run.
