Healds Green is a hamlet in the town of Chadderton in Greater Manchester. It is located in Chadderton's semi rural northern area and lies just to the north of Chadderton Fold, the ancient focal point of the township. ==History== A hamlet of forty one houses and cottages, Healds Green boasts what is believed to be one of Chadderton's oldest surviving buildings. Dating from 1789 and known as The Institute, it was built as a chapel for Methodists and as a hall for everyone. The Institute is now a place where social functions are sometimes held. The building was also used as a grammar school. Most of Healds Green is green belt.〔P24 - Lawson, Michael; Johnson, Mark (1990), Looking Back at Chadderton, Oldham Leisure Services, ISBN 0-902809-23-7〕 In 1811 Healds Green was the meeting place for Chadderton's main contingent of townsfolk who marched to Manchester for the ill-fated political demonstration that came to be known as the Peterloo Massacre.〔http://www.chadderton-hs.freeuk.com/page9-ploo.htm〕 The current Healds Green Methodist Church dates from 1865. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Healds Green」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
