Welcome to Dunham Town

Dunham Town is a small village located in the Greater Manchester area of England. It is situated approximately 10 miles southwest of Manchester city centre and is part of the borough of Trafford. The village is known for its picturesque countryside, historic buildings, and charming atmosphere.

One of the main attractions in Dunham Town is Dunham Massey Hall, a stunning Georgian mansion that dates back to the 18th century. The hall is set in over 300 acres of parkland and gardens, which are open to the public all year round. Visitors can explore the hall's opulent interiors, which include a grand staircase, a library, and a drawing room. The parkland is home to a variety of wildlife, including deer, and is a popular spot for picnics and walks.

Another popular attraction in Dunham Town is the Bridgewater Canal, which runs through the village. The canal was built in the 18th century to transport coal from the mines in Worsley to Manchester. Today, it is a popular spot for boating, fishing, and walking. Visitors can take a leisurely stroll along the towpath and enjoy the peaceful surroundings, or hire a boat and explore the canal at their own pace.
