Littleborough: An Introduction
Littleborough is a small town located in Greater Manchester, in the United Kingdom. A former industrial centre, it is now largely a commuter town for Manchester and is noted for its friendly vibe, its quaint rural atmosphere and its strong sense of community.
The town of Littleborough lies in the picturesque Pennine foothills and is surrounded by a series of rivers, beckoning cyclists and hikers to explore the area's natural beauty. Formerly a mining town and important mill town, Littleborough is fast becoming a centre for alternative and supportive industry, with a particular focus on the finance, car and motorsport industries.
History of Littleborough
The original settlements at Littleborough date back to the late 14th century, with the earliest recorded mention of the area as 'Litulborewe' in 1376. Situated in the Pennines, the town rapidly expanded to become an important centre for cotton spinning, with the industrial revolution of the 18th and 19th centuries kick-starting a wave of economic prosperity.
The opening of the Rochdale Canal in 1804 brought boats and barges full of raw materials to the area; and the coming of the railways enabled expansion of industry even further. Factories, dye-works and papermills began springing up across Littleborough; and the first-ever Co-operative Society in the world was established here in 1844.
With the decline of industrial work toward the mid-20th century, Littleborough's population slowly diminished as residents relocated to larger cities or overseas. But rather than letting the town dwindle away, the local council instead invested in bringing new businesses and services to the area, making Littleborough the strong and vibrant town it is today.
Littleborough's Economy
For centuries Littleborough has been an industrial centre, but the modern economy has seen a large-scale diversification of its industries.

The car industry is one of the most important sectors in Littleborough's economy, employing over 1000 people and providing essential services such as 24-hour breakdown assistance, car recovery and collision repair.
