Situation And General
Lower Quick Edge Farm, is nestled on the fringes of open countryside, located at the head of Quick Edge Road, in the village of Grotton, Saddleworth. The Original parts of the building date back to 1745, and due to the severe neglect the current owners found the property to be in, was mostly rebuilt in 2003, with only one wall remaining of the original building. The current owners have sympathetically restored the property retaining as much character that was original to the properties era. Built from natural stone under a stone roof, the property has been welcomed into the 21st Century.
A brief history of the property uncovers that the previous owner, a lady living on her own, resided at the property until she could no longer retain the upkeep and was moved into further assisted accommodation for her own saftey. This lady was well liked by all around, and her fondness for animals and pets was common knowledge throughout the area, due to the stray cats and dogs she kept taking in. Previous to this the property was thought to belong to The Saddleworth Mill company and used as a weavers works and accommodation for the workers of the mill ( this was typical of these style of building within Saddleworth).
