Tucked away at the very edge of Greater Manchester is the picturesque country village of Broadbottom. The Tameside village stands on an enviable spot right on the River Etherow.
Steeped in history, it was once home to a thriving textile industry which became responsible for the area transforming from rural land into an industrial village. Broadbottom has one remaining textile mill in operation, Lymefield Mill, but remnants of the village's wool and cotton factories remain - although much has been reclaimed by nature and transformed into a haven for wildlife.
