3 and 4 Walsh Fold are a pair of historic dwellings in Bradshaw, a village in South Turton within the Metropolitan Borough of Bolton, Greater Manchester, England. Originally built as a single farmhouse in the late 17th century, the property was later divided into two houses and is now designated a Grade II* listed building.

The farmhouse dates from the late 1600s, reflecting the rural character of Bradshaw during this period. Datestones recorded on the site include 1619, 1658, and 1831, indicating phases of construction and alteration over two centuries.[1]

Originally constructed as a single farmhouse, the building has since been adapted for modern residential use and is now divided into two separate dwellings, known as Nos. 3 and 4 Walsh Fold. On 27 January 1967, it was designated a Grade II* listed building.[2]

Today, both residences remain privately owned and form part of a small cluster of historic properties within the hamlet of Walsh Fold.
