A stone built, Grade II listed, weaver’s cottage dating back to the early 1800s which is now in need of a full programme of modernisation. It is tucked away off the road along this row of terraced cottages which face down the hill with tremendous far-reaching views. The cottage is within a short walk of the well-regarded Bolster Moor Farm Shop & Café, and there are a good range of shops, bars, and cafes in the nearby villages of Golcar and Slaithwaite, along with a train station in Slaithwaite where you can pick up the trans Pennine service. There is also easy access up to the M62 at junctions 23 & 24.
