Description : "Until the 1930s, the land at the corner of Turf Lane was the Quaker burial ground for the Oldham area. The first Meeting House built for the purpose was constructed next to the burial ground in 1794. It served Friends from nearby towns like Rochdale and Ashton, until a new Meeting House was built in the centre of Oldham in 1869. Despite the small membership remaining at Heyside the old Meeting House was rebuilt in 1884, however, it was only ever used for the occasional funeral and as a School for local children". https://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/LAN/Royton/TurfLaneSocietyofFriends Please see both websites for more on this...
