Much of Oldham's housing stock consists of two-up-two-down Victorian era Accrington red-brick terraced houses in a row formation, built for the most part from 1870 to 1920, to house the town's cotton mill workers. A fine example is seen here on Eleanor Street with the old Werneth Ring Mill overshadowing the near by terraced houses. For future reference one of these two bedroom houses sold for £69,000 in March 2008. Image
