About Denton

Known for

The hat-making heritage (Denton was the hatting capital of England), Dane Bank, the Tameside area, and a Greater Manchester town with a strong hatting industry identity

A little history

Denton was famous for its hat-making industry — at its peak producing more hats than anywhere else in England. The town's felting industry made hats from rabbit and beaver fur. The industry declined in the 20th century but shaped Denton's character entirely.

Local tip

The Denton Civic Hall for local events. Hyde Park for walking. The town centre has good independent food. Manchester and the Tameside area are easily accessible.
