A typical commuter-belt part of north-west England
I do have a four-year old Oldham Council area map of the Shaw area and the only Long Rushes that I can trace is in Rushcroft, adjacent to Trent Road.

I could not trace Long Rushes in the High Crompton area, which is an area situated on the opposite side of the B6194 Rochdale Road.

Besides the service 57, the area in general is also served by the service 403.

I'm not entirely sure what to suggest to the above however @RDP has managed to make a move seemingly without any issues so there we go....

We next board the 1330 Diamond Bus North West Bee Network service 159 to Alkrington (Manchester New Road/Alkrington Hall Road North)*, arriving there at 1435 on Tuesday.

* Assuming this is in Alkrington and nowhere else!!
