The Old Milk House, Rochdale Road, Todmorden

History & Location

The Old Milk House is located off Rochdale Road, just outside of the town centre. This detached property once belonged to Todmorden's Fielden family and is believed to have been the former milk house dairy, serving the local school and workhouse at Shade. Pedestrian access only is possible from the Rochdale Road, as a private driveway gives vehicular access to the rear, located at the end of a private road leading to Waterside House. Whilst handy for town centre amenities, Morrisons super market, Shade Primary School and the local station - there is also a pleasant canal side walk and several countryside walks close by.
