Ryder & Dutton Estate Agents Shaw
Shaw, or Crompton as it was originally known, is located at the foothills of the South Pennines, on the River Beal, in-between Oldham and Rochdale. Since its economic boom from textile manufacturing during the industrial revolution Shaw is now a predominantly residential area, with sought after modern developments mixed with Victorian/Edwardian terraced property.
The town offers an excellent environment for the family, retaining a village feel, with highly regarded schools such as the popular Crompton House Secondary School and Sixth Form. Rural walks around Crompton Moor where a picturesque waterfall is found are popular, and with the metrolink due for completion in 2012, and the M62 a short drive-away, city life is a moment away. Shaw centre still provides a bustling village centre with a market every Thursday, and an Asda supermarket which was built a few years ago, shops, cafes and public houses.
Ryder & Dutton in Shaw offer a wealth of experience, with the staff having over 70 years estate agency practice between them, providing strong local links and a professional and courteous service, and are the longest serving agent in the area. Coupled with modern working practices and regional coverage, Ryder & Dutton can provide the help required for a smooth stress-free move.
