Salford township on the Bolton road between Swinton and Agecroft, with a landmark Victorian church. Agecroft Colliery and the Pendlebury cotton mills built the terraces; L. S. Lowry painted the town while working as a rent collector here.
Pendlebury Health Centre, Clifton Country Park nearby and Swinton-facing high street trade. The best-known landmark is St Augustine's Church, Pendlebury — Bodley's 'cathedral of the Manchester coalfield', and the M27 postcodes reach Swinton, Salford, Monton, Eccles within a short drive.
For a house move, what matters most locally is the building fabric: colliery and mill terraces off Bolton Road, interwar semis and postwar estates on the reclaimed Agecroft land. Reclaimed colliery ground and Bolton Road traffic mean silted drives and a fast grey film on white uPVC.
