Elevation
By Breaking Barriers
Rochdale lies below us. We can see its people, its culture, and its history, all intertwined in a rich tapestry of community. We are on top of the world!
Elevation is an immersive journey along the scenic route of Blackstone Edge, using binaural sound, which creates an “audio 3D effect”, to tell tales of those who walked this land before us, and encouraging audiences to take a moment to listen deeply to the sounds of Rochdale in the distance.
Created and delivered by Rochdale-based production company, Breaking Barriers, Elevation is an invitation to embark upon a creative guided tour across the flatlands of Blackstone Edge, whilst listening to the mother of the moorlands on a pair of headphones.

Although you’ll be listening individually, you’ll experience the journey as a collective together.
Join us on a pilgrimage along the ancient path, as we make our way through timeless landscapes and stories from the Romans to the Radical Rochdalians.
