Rochdale is a town in Greater Manchester. Historically part of Lancashire. Rochdale today is a predominantly residential town. Rochdale Town Hall (a Grade I listed building) dates from 1871 and is one of the United Kingdom's finest examples of Victorian Gothic revival architecture. Rochdale Town Hall is a Victorian era town hall widely recognised as being one of the finest municipal buildings in the country.
The Grade I listed building is the ceremonial headquarters of Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council and houses local government departments, including the borough's civil registration office.
Rochdale rose to prominence in the 19th century as a mill town and centre for textile manufacture during the Industrial Revolution. It was a boomtown of the Industrial Revolution, and amongst the first industrialised towns. The Rochdale Canal, one of the major navigable broad canals of the United Kingdom, was a highway of commerce during this time used for the haulage of cotton, wool and coal to and from the area.

What are the conveyancing costs?
Rochdale Conveyancing Solicitor fees dramatically vary depending on whether you approach an online conveyancing solicitor, a high street conveyancer or housing solicitors introduced by your estate agent.
The actual conveyancing costs, outside of the legal work, should be fixed as they are set including:
For buyers: stamp duty, land registration, property searches, ID searches and leasehold charges (if buying a leasehold property).
For sellers: office copies, title plan and management information (if selling a leasehold property).
It is important to make sure when budgeting the costs of moving home that you factor in all of the above conveyancing costs and ensure you get a fixed fee conveyancing quote from your chosen local solicitors or licensed conveyancer.
Whether you're a cash buyer or buying with a mortgage solicitors are key to the whole process, making the right choice critically important.
Fast, good and cheap conveyancing

Can you have a pet in a leasehold property?
As a freeholder, you have no restriction on whether you can have a pet in your property assuming it isn't something like a pet tiger! However you shouldn't assume this is okay if you're buying a leasehold.
As a leaseholder you are effectively still a tenant but with a much longer term than if you were renting and leasehold agreements often have what are called restrictive covenants which may prohibit the keeping of pets (dogs and cats rather than goldfish!).
The challenge you face is that you might only find out about such a restrictive covenant quite far into the conveyancing process - at the legal enquiries stage - when your solicitor examines the leasehold contract.
Sometimes a freeholder can be persuaded to consent to waive the particular clause - your solicitor organises what is known as a deed of variation - but there's no guarantee and if you choose to go ahead regardless, you might ultimately risk a court ordering you to remove the pet from the premises.
