Astley is a small village located in Greater Manchester, England, with a rich industrial heritage tied to the region's coal mining past.
The village's history dates back to medieval times, with records mentioning the settlement in the Domesday Book. The area is perhaps best known for Astley Green Colliery, which operated from 1908 to 1970 and is now preserved as a mining museum. The colliery's prominent headgear, a Grade II listed structure, stands as a reminder of the area's mining legacy and is one of the few remaining examples in the Lancashire Coalfield.
The village maintains its rural character despite its proximity to Manchester, with several historic buildings and structures that reflect its cultural heritage.
