About Fencing in Rochdale
Rochdale in Lancashire is recognised worldwide as the birthplace of the modern cooperative movement, after 28 local artisans, more than half of them working in the town's textile trade, founded the Rochdale Equitable Pioneers Society and opened their first shop on Toad Lane on 21 December 1844. With only flour, oatmeal, sugar and butter on the shelves at first, the venture grew into the model for the Rochdale Principles, including open membership, democratic control on a one member one vote basis, and a dividend paid out in proportion to each member's purchases, principles that shaped cooperative societies across the world in the century that followed.
