Friezland

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For the similarly named Dutch province, see Friesland.

Friezland is a hamlet in Saddleworth, in the Metropolitan Borough of Oldham, Greater Manchester, England. Situated four miles east of the town of Oldham, Friezland lies within the historic county boundaries of the West Riding of Yorkshire.

Friezland lies between the village of Grasscroft and nearby town of Mossley. Friezland is situated on the banks of the Huddersfield Narrow Canal, and has a church and a primary school. It is also the original home of Friezland Brass Band[1] conducted by one of the few female brass conductors in the UK, Lana Clough. The band has now set up a base in neighbouring Mossley, Tameside.
