These terraces are located at the bottom edge of Mount Pleasant, Nangreaves, near Ramsbottom, Lancashire, and were part of a purpose-built textile factory village established in the early 19th century and which finally closed in the 1960s. It has since then been a dormitory village and was designated a conservation area in 1974.
