The Scheme 

Top o’th Fields is located within the Besses area of Whitefield close to Bury and Manchester. The bus stops and local Besses o’th’ barn tram stop are close by. Approximately 400 yards away is the local shopping parade, bowling green and golf course. Places of worship are also located within a short distance of the scheme.


The Flats

The scheme has 30 x 1 bed flats.

All flats benefit from;

- Double glazing, central heating, smoke alarms and a TV aerial point. They all have a fitted kitchen with a small electric cooker provided.


- They are decorated throughout with your own choice of carpets and vinyl flooring where appropriate.


- The flats have a secure door entry system for your peace of mind and are all fitted with Carelink Alarms


Communal Areas

The communal areas have been newly decorated with complimentary carpets, curtains and seating and the lounges and communal kitchen can be used by all the residents.
Activities are held in the communal lounge including coffee mornings, bingo and days out. Lounges can be used for individual or group celebrations such as parties. Residents have the choice of getting as involved as they wish to in these activities. Communal grounds are maintained by the council leaving you to enjoy the garden without worrying about weeding and mowing the lawns. The grounds can also be a setting for getting together and enjoying the sunshine. There are on site laundry facilities for use by all occupiers within the scheme, a lift for access to all floors and a guest room which can be used by visiting relatives.


The Cost

The rent at Top o’th Fields is currently £102.48 per week and includes the amenity charges, heating, management and support charges.

Where properties on the scheme differ in size and layout there will be an increase in the rent amount.
