The property is located prominently upon Mawdsley Street within the heart of Bolton Town Centre. Access to the property can be gained from both Mawdsley Street and Chancery Lane, direct from Nelson Square. Nelson Square is a popular and established location, surrounded by bars, nightclubs, cafes and restaurants. Nelson Square and Mawdsley Street make up one of the main thoroughfares leading to the Town Hall Square and Crompton Place Shopping Centre (due for extensive re-development). Bolton is well served by mainline train stations that run regular and direct services to and from Manchester. The majority of the local property in the vicinity is commercial in nature, with a handful of student apartment and residential schemes nearby, including key developments such as 58 town houses at St Georges Road/Bark Street and 218 apartments and town houses at Moor Lane.
