Where to stay in Walshaw
The practical side of choosing where to sleep.
Bury takes the booking. Walshaw is a village of houses two miles from the town, so a visitor sleeps in Bury and comes out here for Christ Church, Walshaw and the lanes running between the two churches. The village lets nothing.
You want a Bury base if the day includes Tottington Hall and the quieter ground south of Tottington.

About Walshaw
What are the main landmarks in Walshaw?
Four names make the register. Christ Church, Walshaw is the one that carries the village's own name, and the Church of St John stands beside it as the second dedication on a list that runs no further than a pair of churches and a pair of houses. Tottington Hall is the third.
Lower Walshaw House completes the entry, and between the four of them they account for everything the village has that a visitor could put on a map.
What is the history of Walshaw?
Walshaw has no recorded founding year. The entry names it a village forming part of the Metropolitan Borough of Bury, which places it inside a modern administrative unit without saying anything at all about when the settlement itself began. Two dedications survive.
Christ Church, Walshaw and the Church of St John hold the ecclesiastical record between them, while Tottington Hall and Lower Walshaw House are the two houses entered beside them in Greater Manchester.
Where is Walshaw?
The village sits two miles northwest of Bury and just south of Tottington, inside Greater Manchester and the borough that carries the town's name.
