About Oldham
- Oldham was the most productive cotton-spinning town on earth at its peak — more spindles than any other place, and the phrase 'Oldham counts' became the industry's standard.
- The game of rugby league was effectively born here — the town's clubs were among the 22 that broke away to form the Northern Union in 1895.
- Dovestone Reservoir, twenty minutes up the moors, is one of the North West's most beautiful walks — its boat-shaped dam wall is a favourite of walkers and photographers.
