MenuRadcliffe, Lancashire
Radcliffe is a town in Lancashire, standing on the River Irwell. Radcliffe appears in an entry of the Domesday Book as "Radeclive" and in the High Middle Ages formed a small parish and township centred on the Church of St Mary and the manorial Radcliffe Tower. By the mid-19th century, Radcliffe was an important mill town with cotton mills, bleachworks and a road, canal and railway network. The town is now predominantly a residential area. St Mary’s parish church was built during the 14th century, and the tower added in the 15th century. The town is within the council area of Bury.
