This place is great, for a small-ish town like Rochdale it really punches above its weight. I took my little girl who is about 17 months and she loved all the interactive exhibits and the arts and crafts. I came here for work to set up a live stream in the gallery several years ago too I remember th
I've not been here since I was a kid, so I thought I would take my kids while we were in the area. It was a pleasant way to spend an hour. It was really relaxed with lots of things to see and read. The toilets are easy to access and really clean, earning an ooh from my Mom as she opened the door. Th
Brilliant art gallery and museum in Rochdale. Great place to learn about the local history and famous people of the area. It's also got a cafe, shop and had a craft market in one of the rooms when I was there.
Beautiful old venue. Great staff. Current exhibition is Mischief by Liz Collins which is absolutely world class and a huge coup for Rochdale.
Interesting art exhibition & Local information thoughtfully displayed in a beautiful historical building.
Coffee & cake pleasantly served & bought to your table.
I spent an hour and a half on a inspiring adventure with a good friend, neither of us to look at would give an impression of even being slightly interested in in art and local history but we were given a tour by a wonderful staff member unfortunately the uninterested man on the till was only giving

A great museum with lots of interesting local heritage exhibits.
The bottom section of the museum focusing on British history is great, very interactive for children. Gift shop is great and there are always good displays on upstairs - mostly art exhibitions. It's also free to enter so worth going for an afternoon out.
Have had an absolutely brilliant morning at Touchstones today visiting the Dippy adventure. I took my 4 year old son who thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We arrived a little early and took some time to explore the museum exhibition which was full of local historic information and artefacts. The Di
Well laid out displays. Plenty of information on the history of Rochdale.
Lovely museum with lots of local history. Very interesting. Unable to stay as long as we would have liked but I am sure we will visit again
Great place to go for a quiet time to yourself to think and explore your imagination. I've been coming here for a while and seen multiple exhibitions. Still always great and refreshing.
Went round the museum today. Covers Rochdale's history well, and is nicely laid out with good captioning.
The local studies staff were very helpful I was researching my family tree. When I said my great-grandfather was in the workhouse the lady produced the book and found his records.
