Summerseat is a village in Lancashire. It sits beside the River Irwell, in the Irwell Valley, to the north of Bury and along the route of the M66 motorway.
The East Lancashire Steam Railway has a station in the village. There is a small range of local shops, amongst them a local store, two public houses (the Footballer's and the Hamer's Arms).
The closed Waterside pub, which was formerly the 200-year-old Joshua Hoyles Cotton Mill, on the Kay Bridge, was planned to be redeveloped as a residential site, until the storms on Boxing Day 2015 cast doubt upon it.[1][2]
