The area around Bury.
Bury is a proud former mill town on the northern edge of Greater Manchester, famous for its market and black puddings, and the southern end of the East Lancashire Railway. The Metrolink line makes it popular with commuters into Manchester, while the borough stretches from Prestwich and Whitefield to Ramsbottom and Tottington. Customers in each of those districts think of themselves as quite separate places. Home-services firms get better enquiries by naming the specific districts they cover rather than the whole borough.
Just over the council boundary, Heywood (3 miles), Middleton (5 miles), Bolton (6 miles) and Rochdale (6 miles) are close by. It is worth saying plainly which of these you travel to, so people further out know whether to call.
Ramsbottom, Tottington, Radcliffe, Prestwich, Whitefield, Walshaw and Unsworth: if you work in particular parts of Bury, those names belong on the site.
Bury addresses fall in the BL postcode area, about 205 miles north of Exeter, where we are based.
