M26 1BS is an accessible, working-class neighbourhood on Lund Avenue, 0.2km from Outwood Gate in Radcliffe. Administratively it sits within Radcliffe West ward and the Bury South constituency.

An affordable area with active regeneration, M26 1BS is a striving suburban area — non-UK born households working to get ahead. The daytime character shifts — mainly white older workforce, self-employed in agriculture, forestry and fishing, with some construction. The 39 average age reflects a mixed, mid-career community — settling down but not yet slowing down. 57% of homes are socially rented, reflecting the area's public housing provision and council presence. Full-time employment stands at 24% — below average for the region, consistent with the area's higher deprivation indicators.
