Rosedene

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A red-brick Victorian cottage built for Chartist members as part of the inovative Chartist Land Plan. Thie small cottage has been restored to show what life was like for early Chartists. Included on the site are a dairy, earth closet, water pump, and working range.

The Chartists Land Plan was a scheme to encourage industrial workers to resettle on a smallholding, as part of a collective environment, with houses allocated by lottery to members contributing to the scheme. Over 250 smallholdings were established across the country, many in the industrial heartland of Lancashire.

The house is set beside a working organic garden, managed by volunteers. Many of the original trees still remain in the orchard. Admission is only by guided tours. Booking is essential - please see the National Trust website for details.
