In the shadow of the hills on the outskirts of Rochdale lies a village that is quietly bucking the national trend.
While high streets up and down the country struggle amid pressures caused by the cost of living crisis, Norden's is going from 'strength to strength'.
Among the independent shops that line Edenfield Road, you'll find clothes shops, wine bars, a card shop and an opticians, as well as the usual staples of village life. For somewhere home to less than 10,000 people, it's an impressive offering.

"You can put your basket on your arm and go to the butchers, the bakers and the candlestick makers," explained Brigit Rhodes, manager of Hope Womenswear in the village.
The shop was previously based on Drake Street, in Rochdale town centre, before relocating to Norden eight years ago.
"We would have been out of business if we'd stayed," said Ms Rhodes. "There's no way we could have survived.
"Town centres all over the country are in decline. Ladies did not want to come into Rochdale town centre.
"When this became available we said 'why don't we give it a go?' We've never looked back.
"Our customers have followed us and we've picked up even more. There's a real community spirit here."
Ms Rhodes' colleague Georgina Webb is originally from New Moston but settled in Norden after living in various other parts of the country. More than two decades on, it's a decision she has no regrets about.
"Rochdale has got a reputation nationally but I absolutely love it here," she explained. "I lived in Suffolk for six years and it was twee with thatched houses but I would choose here any day.

emotional abuse lodged by his ex-girlfriend Sarah Brady.The pro surfer claimed in a series of explosive Instagram stories last month that Hill would “gaslight” and “manipulate” her into removing photos of herself wearing a swimsuit.She shared a plethora of texts between her and the comedian, where he allegedly used “therapy speak” — a TikTok-fueled phrase used to describe the weapon of manipulation rather than an expression of vulnerability — to “control” and converse with her.Brady also posted a screen recording of a message Hill allegedly sent her, in which he said that some of her photos were inappropriate and he wanted to create “boundaries” in their relationship.In another post of the alleged messages, Brady said that “the fact that [Hill] calls himself a feminist now is laughable.”The athlete also dropped a photo where she rocked a white crop top and matching shorts at the time, captioning it: “Reviving a pic I took down by request of a narcissistic misogynist.”Hill was also accused by “Zoey 101” star Alexa Nikolas on July 8 of sexual assault, shortly after Brady released her own accusations against Hill.Nikolas, 31, alleged that the “You People” actor kissed her without her consent when she was 16 years old and offered her a cigarette while at a party hosted by actor Justin Long.She detailed the incident on X — the social media platform formerly known as Twitter — and also claimed he “slammed me to the door and shoved his tongue down my throat.”“I was so appalled I pushed him off of me and ran inside,” the former child actress wrote.

filed a lawsuit Wednesday which reveals extraordinary allegations of a harassment campaign against her and other “survivors.”Remini, 53, who named Cruise’s BFF, Scientology leader David Miscavige, as a defendant in the suit, has former church leaders backing her—and they tell The Post they’re ready to tell their truth about its “regime of abuse.”Remini, who has labeled Hollywood icon Cruise as “essentially second in command” in the church, alleged that she was held at a Scientology facility for 4 months and “psychologically punished” after asking where Miscavige’s wife, Shelly Miscavige, was at Cruise’s 2006 Italian wedding to his ex-wife Katie Holmes.One highly-placed source told The Post: “I think that Leah will call Tom to be a witness. She claims that she was abused after his wedding, so why wouldn’t she call him? He’s a part of this.”The Post has reached out to Cruise for comment.The church grew out of the writings of British science fiction author, L.
In a statement released by the Church of Scientology on Thursday, the organization called the suit “ludicrous” and claimed that the allegations were “pure lunacy.”“This lawsuit is ludicrous and the allegations pure lunacy,” the statement read. “Remini spreads hate and falsehoods for a decade and is now offended when people exercise their right to free speech, exposing her for what she is—an anti-free speech bigot.”The message continued: “Remini’s complaints are like an anti-Semite complaining about the Jewish Anti-Defamation League for exposing the anti-Semite’s bigotry and propaganda.”“Remini’s obsession with attacking her former religion, by spreading falsehoods and hate speech, has generated threats of and actual violence against the Church and its members as evidenced by multiple criminal convictions of individuals poisoned by Remini’s propaganda.”In the statement, the Church also claimed that Remini had “antisocial traits” and called her a “horrible person,” adding that the star had “profited handsomely from her fabrications.” “If Remini can no longer get a job, she has nobody to blame but herself,” they wrote.
