VELUX® Windows and Roofing in Ramsbottom

Homes and roofs in Ramsbottom

Central Ramsbottom has gritstone terraces and cottages with slate roofs, many stepping up the valley sides, along with Victorian villas on the higher roads. Later semis, detached homes and newer developments have been added around the edges, and converted mills provide apartments.

A stone town with conservation areas

Ramsbottom's town centre is a conservation area, and stone buildings need repairs with matching slate and suitable mortars. The town sits beneath the West Pennine Moors, so wind-driven rain and occasional snow test chimney stacks, verges and flashings.

Loft rooms in Ramsbottom's stone terraces are often lit by roof windows, and those on exposed slopes benefit from regular servicing. Top-hung windows can make the most of the valley views, and low-profile designs suit the conservation area.
