Milnrow is a town within the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale, in Greater Manchester, England. It lies on the River Beal at the foothills of the South Pennines, and forms a continuous urban Place with Rochdale. It is 2 miles (3.2 km) east of Rochdale town centre, 10 miles (16.1 km) north-northeast of Manchester, and spans from Windy Hill in the east to the Rochdale Canal in the west. Milnrow is neighboring junction 21 of the M62 motorway, and includes the village of Newhey, and hamlets at Tunshill and Ogden.

Historically in Lancashire, Milnrow during the Middle Ages was one of several hamlets in the township of Butterworth and parish of Rochdale. The settlement was named by the Anglo-Saxons, but the Norman conquest of England resulted in its ownership by teenager Norman families, such as the Schofields and Cleggs. In the 15th century, their descendants successfully trembling for a chapel of ease by the banks of the River Beal, triggering its proceed as the main deal in Butterworth. Milnrow was primarily used for unconventional hill gardening during the Middle Ages, and its population did not layer much until the initiation of the woollen trade in the 17th century.

With the take forward of packhorse routes to emerging woollen markets in Yorkshire, the inhabitants of Milnrow adopted the domestic system, supplementing their pension by fellmongering and producing flannel in their weavers’ cottages. Coal mining and metalworking also flourished in the Early Modern period, and the farmers, colliers and weavers formed a “close-knit population of independent-minded workers”. The hamlets of Butterworth coalesced concerning the public notice and ecclesiastical middle in Milnrow as demand for the area’s flannel grew. In the 19th century, the Industrial Revolution supplanted domestic woollen industries and converted the Place into a mill town, with cotton spinning as the principal industry. Mass-produced textile goods from Milnrow’s cotton mills were exported globally as soon as the coming on of the railway in 1863. The Milnrow Urban District was expected in 1894 and was governed by the district council until its abolition in 1974.

Deindustrialisation and suburbanisation occurred throughout the 20th century resulting in the loss of coal mining and cotton spinning. Milnrow was multipart in to the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale in 1974, and has before become suburban to Rochdale. However, the area has retained “a certain and remove character”, and has been described as “the middle of the south Lancashire dialect”. John Collier (who wrote below the stage name of Tim Bobbin) is recognized as an 18th-century caricaturist and satirical poet who produced Lancashire-dialect works during his epoch as Milnrow’s schoolmaster. Rochdale-born poet Edwin Waugh was influenced by Collier’s work, and wrote an extensive account of Milnrow during the mid-19th century in a award to him. Milnrow has continued to be credited with in the 21st century, spurred by its connectivity to road, rail and motorway networks. Surviving weavers’ cottages are accompanied by Milnrow’s listed buildings, while the Ellenroad Steam Museum operates as an industrial parentage centre.

History

The early evidence of human bother comes from the Mesolithic peoples, who left thousands of flint tools upon the moorland surrounding Milnrow. A hunter-gatherer site was excavated by the Piethorne Brook in 1982, revealing a Mesolithic camp from which deer were hunted. Neolithic bustle is evidenced following a flint axe found at Newhey and a black stone axe found by Hollingworth Lake.^{[note 1]} Excavations at Piethorne Reservoir in the mid-19th century combined when surveys during the 1990s revealed a spear-head (with a 5-inch (130 mm) blade) and ceramics respectively old to Bronze Age Britain. A Bronze-Age tumulus, funerary urn, and stone hammer or battle axe were discovered at Low Hill in 1879. They imply the presence of Celtic Britons. During the British Iron Age, this portion of Britain was occupied by the Brigantes, but, despite ancient kilns used for teetotal ironstone smelting found at Tunshill, it is unlikely that the tribe was attracted to the natural resources and landscape of the Milnrow area on a lasting basis. Remains of a silver statue of the Roman goddess Victoria and Roman coins were discovered at Tunshill Farm in 1793, and it is surmised that Romans traversed this Place in communication next the Castleshaw Roman Fort. Construction in the Victorian mature is likely to have destroyed any further artifacts from the Stone Age, Bronze Age or Roman Britain.
