Shopping

A great place for those looking for something unique, the borough of Rochdale boasts a strong independent retail sector.

Rochdale town boasts 2 shopping centres, both in the pedestrianised areas of Yorkshire Street. Heywood’s high street has an excellent range of independent retailers and leading retail names and Middleton Shopping Centre is also a popular place to shop.

The Pennines provide a magnificent backdrop to an afternoon browsing the shops in Littleborough, whose historic centre is perfect for searching for that unique gift. Littleborough and Milnrow also sells tasty local produce.
