Asbestos in Oldham
At its peak Oldham had more than 300 cotton mills, and dozens still stand in Chadderton, Royton, Shaw and Werneth — some converted, many still working as warehouses. Around them are stone and brick terraces climbing towards Glodwick and Coppice, interwar and post-war council estates, and the Pennine stone villages of Saddleworth.
The mills are Oldham's main licensed work: sprayed limpet coatings on steel and concrete, lagging on steam pipes and boilers, AIB fire breaks and partitions, and acres of asbestos cement roofing. In housing it is Artex, cement flues and floor tiles in the terraces, and garages, soffits and cold-water tanks in the semis and council stock.
