Cottages at Warth Fold
Dennis Turner described these as "the last remaining cottages of the old Warth village" in his photograph from 2005 (Image). They are shown on the OS map of 1889 https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/379000/409000/12/101394 and may have been built for workers at the nearby cotton mill which was built around that time and became an infamous internment camp during the Second World War (https://www.burytimes.co.uk/news/16309866.hidden-history-horror-brutality-injustice-warth-mills-wwii-prison-camp/ Bury Times)

Openshaw Fold, Warth
In his photograph from 2005 (Image), Dennis Turner described these as "the last remaining cottages of the old Warth village". They date from the late nineteenth century (they are shown on the OS map of 1889 https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/379000/409000/12/101394 , but not that of 1848). They may have been built for workers at the nearby cotton mill (Warth Mills) which was built around that time and later became an infamous internment camp during the Second World War (https://www.burytimes.co.uk/news/16309866.hidden-history-horror-brutality-injustice-warth-mills-wwii-prison-camp/ Bury Times)
