Hi, I'm looking for a route between Castleton(Rochdale) and Oldham Hospital, quiet roads and avoiding as many hills as possible(I realise almost every direction in Rochdale/Oldham is uphill:laugh:). Its for her indoors and the last thing needed after a long hospital shift is hill reps:wacko:

Thanks

Tell me about it....all I can think of is past Tonges farm ie through to Oozewood and through Royton(this is the busy part).
Thanks Colin, that's half my commute into Mcr so know it well(also know the Broadway sections.

I'd be looking at a way of getting across to the Rochdale canal at the Rose of Lancaster pub. That stretch of canal is quite pleasant from memory. Otherwise, there are a number of bumpy dirt roads across the void between Royton/Oozewood and Slattocks but these will be horribly mucky in winter or whenever it rains.

Getting from the hospital to the canal looks easier than I thought using shared? paths around/under/over the motorway/dual carriageways and residential back streets.
