The Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale includes not only the town of Rochdale but also Middleton, Heywood, Littleborough, Milnrow and Wardle, each of which retains its own separate identity and character.

Between and around the towns and villages are vast expanses of open space. Dominating the skyline to the north and east of the Borough are spectacular views of open moorland along the magnificent Pennine edge while to the south and west are pleasant river valleys, woodlands and meadows.

The Borough has much to offer the people of the area and visitors alike. The high quality of life includes a wide choice of places to live at a reasonable cost; interesting local heritage, attractive countryside, a varied multi-racial culture and a thriving business community.
