Healds Green is a hamlet in the town of Chadderton in the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham, Greater Manchester.

It is located in Chadderton's semi rural northern area and lies just to the north of Chadderton Fold, the ancient focal point of the township.

Most of the area around Healds Green is currently green belt.[1][2] A substantial area of this green belt area could potentially be lost to industrial development under proposals put forward in 2018 by the Greater Manchester Combined Authority to extend the Stakehill Industrial Estate in nearby Thornham into the North Chadderton green belt area. The proposals have met local opposition and a protest group, Save Chadderton Green Belt, has formed in opposition to the proposals.[3]

History

In 1811 Healds Green was the meeting place for Chadderton's main contingent of townsfolk who marched to Manchester for the ill-fated political demonstration that came to be known as the Peterloo Massacre.[4]

The present day Healds Green Methodist Church building dates from 1865. The church held its last service in September 2016 and has now closed due to dwindling congregations.[5][6]
