Chadderton is a large township in Oldham with a predominantly Victorian and Edwardian housing stock in the town centre and inner areas, and post-war semis and detached properties on the surrounding estates. The town borders Oldham, Failsworth and Royton and has a large and settled residential population. Chadderton was historically a significant cotton-manufacturing centre and its housing reflects that industrial heritage — terraces built quickly for the workforce, and later estates built to house the post-war population.
