Oldham, Italy
Saddleworth railway station, on the Huddersfield Line in Dobcross to the north of Uppermill, opened in August 1849 and closed to passengers in October 1968 as a consequence of a report by Richard Beeching on the restructuring of railway networks. The former station building can still be seen, having
been sold after closure and converted into a private residence. It was the home of television director Ken Stephinson between 1978 and 2012.
