Walkden · inter-war and post-war semis, Victorian terraces off Bolton...
Pointing and repointing in Walkden
Walkden and Little Hulton are mainly semis — inter-war along Bolton Road and Manchester Road, post-war estates behind them — with a spine of older Victorian terraces near the town centre. Roe Green and Worsley to the south are a different world: black-and-white cottages, old brick in lime and a conservation area where the council cares about joint colour.
Most jobs in Walkden itself are front elevations on the semis, replacing frost-spalled bricks and repointing bays and gables. In Worsley and Roe Green it is careful lime work on small old walls. Both are about thirty minutes from Rochdale.
