Life in the charming Greater Manchester village with the most stunning country walks and two pubs

On the border of Greater Manchester lies the charming chocolate box village of Hawkshaw.

With a population of just 1,000 people, the isolated village can be found nestled between Bury and Bolton. Surrounded by stunning countryside, the area is a known a hotspot for walking enthusiasts.

Quaint terrace homes and pretty cottages still line the streets – with some standing unaltered for more than 200 years. And while the village feels secluded, it's still home to a number of handy amenities.
