Moorside is a suburb of Oldham in Greater Manchester, England. It is located in the north east of the ancient township [of Oldham] in a semi rural locality bordering Saddleworth, contiguous with Sholver which lies to the west. In common with many other districts of Oldham, Moorside saw considerable expansion in the mid 19th century. This was in the main due to the efforts of industrialist Thomas Mellodew & Sons. The Mellodews of Moorside were textile manufacturers (velvet) and had a number of mills in the Moorside area. Template:Moreinfo Moorside, Greater Manchester [edit] Research Tips
