 Bury is a town on the northern side
of Greater Manchester, between Rochdale and Bolton and just west
of the M66. Its popularity has also been recently enhanced by
the Metrolink tram/train service which terminates at Bury, and
the reopening of the East Lancashire Light Railway which runs
daily from Bury (Bolton Street) to Rawtenstall. |
