This is quite a new house, and the ivy effect must be deliberate. It stands on the corner of Broad Lane and Lower Lane (continuing as the major road to the right). Lower Lane used to reach Milnrow, but it was closed when the new access road to Junction 21 of the M62 was built, to prevent it becoming a rat-run to the motorway.
