Pilsworth is an area in the Metropolitan Borough of Bury, Greater Manchester, England. Historically, it was a township, but in 1894 it was divided between Bury, Heywood, and Unsworth.[1]
It was formerly home to a retail and leisure complex called Park 66, consisting of a cinema, a ten-pin bowling alley, an Asda superstore and a selection of food outlets including Pizza Hut, McDonald's, Frankie & Benny's and Chiquito. Following the closure of the cinema most of the other retail and leisure venues followed suit with only Asda and McDonald's remaining.
In June 2016 work started on a multi-million pound re-development. This now houses Home Bargains, The Food Warehouse, Greggs, Costa Coffee and KFC amongst others, and they opened in 2019. The work was carried out by Sladen Estates and Peveril Securities. A Starbucks is due to be constructed by late 2023 taking up part of the Asda car park.
