Saddleworth & Lees

Countryside and history combine in the semi-rural villages of Saddleworth thanks to the Roman fort at Castleshaw and the reservoir-dotted moorland around Greenfield, Diggle, Denshaw, Delph and Dobcross. Saddleworth's busiest village is Uppermill, with a museum, independent shops and other businesses, while nearby Lees was the birthplace of the renowned artist Helen Bradley.
