Description
Uppermill is a beautiful little village that clings to the lower slopes of the craggy Pennine moors on the outskirts of Oldham. This relaxed, canal-side museum and gallery takes a look at the local history and people of the Saddleworth area and the Victorian woollen industry that shaped them.
The whole area is a popular tourist attraction - it is well worth including a tour of the village itself and the surrounding countryside. Note that during the winter months the museum is only open between 1pm and 4pm daily.
